Bariatric (Weight Loss Surgery) Service 

Our Bariatric program is led by Dr. Robert A. Althar, MD FACS with over 20 years of surgical experience. He is Board Certified in General Surgery and Bariatrics as  well as a host of other fellowships.

                  

For individuals who have been unable to achieve significant weight loss through diet modifications and exercise programs alone, bariatric surgery may help to attain a more healthy body weight.  There are a number of surgical options available to treat morbid obesity and in general, bariatric surgery is successful in producing (often substantial) weight loss which can improve your health, reduce your risk of developing associated conditions and enhance your quality of life.
