Welcome to the Healthy Living Center at Doctors Hospital, the premier hospital for patients considering bariatric surgery. Our mission is to provide our patients with a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals who support our patients each step of the way from the initial consultation through surgery and follow up.  We offer a personal approach and will be your partner, guiding you through our program. 

Weight loss is one of the hardest struggles you may ever face.  We know that obesity is not a disorder of willpower, but rather a chronic disease that has many contributing factors, involving your environment, genetics, physiology, psychology, metabolism, and behavior.

Our team of experienced surgical weight loss physicians can help you achieve your weight loss goals.  Surgical weight reduction approaches have consistently been shown to produce effective and manageable weight loss.

If you’ve been seeking a weight loss solution, we encourage you to take a look around our web site and contact us for an initial consultation.

Our Healthy Living Center staff will be happy to help you understand your weight loss options. Thank you for taking the time to visit our web site! We look forward to helping you begin your new journey to a healthier lifestyle.
