Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)

Bariatric surgery is not for everyone who is severely overweight as it has potential health risks such as infection, blood clots, excessive bleeding, etc. That’s why bariatric surgeons also discuss non-surgical weight loss options as part of the treatment plan.

To determine the most appropriate surgical option for weight loss, bariatric surgeons consider various factors, such as BMI, the patient’s health condition, and the patient’s psychological assessment.

The doctors we list are highly sought after by patients. We consider experience, designation, patient feedback, hospital reputation and our own experience of working with them amongst many factors in creating the list.

A bariatric surgeon checks the patient’s eligibility for bariatric surgery by considering several factors, such as body mass index (BMI), eating habits, physical and emotional health, age, and health conditions.

You can carry the following reports if you have had these done before: Physical examination (measurements of your weight, height, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, and other vital signs). Laboratory tests (blood glucose levels, lipid profiles, liver function tests, thyroid function tests, and screening for nutritional deficiencies). Diagnostic imaging (Ultrasound and X-rays). Actual reports may vary from case to case, but carrying the above reports would be helpful.

Please submit your inquiry on the website. Upon review of the details, a case manager from our team is assigned. The case manager will assist you with opinion, cost, travel, stay, and appointment with the doctor.
