 Evangelical Community Hospital’s Bariatric Program was developed to help obese individuals achieve permanent weight loss through surgery. If accepted into the program, you can expect to be personally guided throughout the process.
If you are a candidate for surgery, you will begin the program with an initial physician visit. You will also meet with a Registered Dietitian on a monthly basis to achieve the
required ten percent weight loss prior to surgery. Our program also includes a personalized exercise program designed to assist you in your weight loss goals. Our nursing staff remains in contact with each patient throughout your participation in the program.
