Sadly, it is quite difficult to stop gaining weight. Weight gain often starts slowly and may not be noticed at first, but eventually the pounds start accumulating. Chances are youve tried diet after diet that just didnt provide lasting results. To make matters worse, even small amounts of exercise can be difficult if you suffer from obesity. If you are able to exercise, you worry about how the outside world will perceive you. Instead of celebrating your courage to face the issue head on, people may stare or make cruel comments. This only adds to the self-loathing many of our patients experience. Depression and social anxiety are common problems shared by most of our patients. You are not alone! We can reverse the damage that obesity has inflicted on your mind and body.

Thinking about undergoing bariatric surgery (weight loss surgery) can be terrifying. You may be at the point of giving up, and just dont know what to do anymore. Many of our patients come to us feeling depressed and unsure of what to do, but knowing something has to change.
