Presbyterian Bariatric Center offers free informational seminars to individuals who are considering bariatric surgery or would like to learn more about it. Attending is one of the best ways to determine if you are a candidate for weight loss surgery and can help you decide if weight loss surgery is right for you. Please understand that if you want to proceed with bariatric surgery, you will be required to attend one of our seminars.
Remember, there is much misinformation about weight loss surgery that you may encounter from unqualified sources. Talking to others who have taken the path you are now considering may help you understand what you need to know to make a decision you can be comfortable with. In the end, your best source of information is an experienced bariatric surgeon who knows how to handle your special needs before, during and after weight loss surgery.
