Bariatric Weight Loss Surgery Program: A New You

Peace River Regional Medical Center’s Bariatric Surgery Program offers patients a comprehensive approach for weight loss, and a better understanding of obesity and its surgical options.  We have a knowledgeable, compassionate, and respectful team of professionals that assist in making the necessary lifestyle changes that are essential in beginning a new life before and after obesity surgery.

We Offer Choices

Our physicians perform both Laparoscopic and Open Gastric Bypass Surgery (Roux-en-Y), as well as the Adjustable Gastric Banding System, commonly referred to as the LAP-BAND.

Our Comprehensive Approach is the Best Approach

Together, our staff of professionals will provide you with individualized care in order to support your efforts as you venture ahead toward your desired weight loss and lifestyle modifications.  Our comprehensive approach includes everything from a medical, surgical and psychological evaluation, to nutritional counseling with a registered dietician, regularly scheduled support groups and an indiviudalized wellness program.

All of these evaluations and programs have been developed to assist you in your recovery and your management of life after surgery.  We will take you step by step beginning with the decision to have obesity surgery as well as making sure that after the surgery you are provided with the knowledge and the support of a trained staff.  We feel that the more informed and comfortable a patient becomes with their decision and the choice of their medical and surgical team, the better the outcome after surgery.
