Supportive Programs & Services
We believe in a holistic approach to managing your weight through group support, exercise routines, therapy, and, in some cases, plastic surgery.
Weight-Loss Support Group
Oftentimes learning about a procedure or medicine from someone who experienced it first-hand can give you the most insight.
We coordinate a variety of weight-loss support groups to connect patients before and after surgery. Each group is led by an expert in the weight-loss field and may cover topics including the bariatric surgery experience, adjusting to post-weight loss life, and fitness and nutrition for better health.

Cosmetic Surgery Options
If you’re interested in following up your weight loss with a cosmetic surgery, our board-certified surgeons have expertise in this area.
- We will meet with you to discuss your concerns and then present the best options for you. These may include body contouring to address loose, sagging, or rolls of skin, or a face lift to tighten the skin and tissue. Our team may also suggest a tummy tuck, thigh lift, or arm lift.
- Many of our procedures can be done on an outpatient basis, with minimal external incisions and pain management options. This means less blood loss, fewer complications, lighter anesthesia, and faster recovery.
- Our board-certified plastic surgeons are part of a multidisciplinary team of anesthesiologists, nurses, physician assistants, and therapists so that you receive individualized care every step of the way.
