Determining whether you are a suitable candidate for bariatric surgery is the first step toward a healthy lifestyle change.
Health Benefits of Weight Loss
Overweight and obesity can be associated with various health conditions that negatively impact your quality of life.
The weight loss achieved through bariatric surgery offers significant benefits, including a reduction in the risk of chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes and heart diseases. Additionally, weight loss can improve mobility, reduce joint pain, and enhance sleep quality, among other advantages.

Assessment of Body Mass Index and Other Factors
The body mass index (BMI) is one of the most crucial indicators to determine if you are a candidate for bariatric surgery. Ideal candidates have a BMI of 30 or more, that might be accompanied by weight-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes or hypertension. Moreover, your current height and weight are essential factors in this assessment, providing a clear picture of your current health status and potential risks associated with obesity.
Under the expert guidance of Dr. Hernán Fraga and his team of professionals, you can receive a detailed and personalized assessment that will help you understand the best surgery options for your specific case.
