Tips

One of the best results of bariatric surgery is the relief of your related conditions. Many people find that the chronic ailments they have experienced go away after bariatric surgery. Diabetes, sleep apnea, cardiovascular disease and hypertension are all examples of conditions that have been significantly reduced or even eliminated by bariatric surgery--sometimes even before the weight is lost.

 

Specialized Care

We go beyond the surgery to surround our patients with the very best, most specialized care and follow-through available. 

The Barix Clinics Program Team

With Barix, you will have a complete support team consisting of bariatric professionals for every aspect of your care. Their duties may be different, but what they all have in common is a passion to make a difference in the lives of bariatric patients.

Everyone who works with the Barix Clinics program goes through rigorous training for bariatric surgery needs. Everybody you see and even those you don't see are specialists in bariatric surgery, both by training and by experience. For example, in a typical hospital, you may not find an anesthesiologist who is accustomed to treating an overweight person. But through the Barix Clinics program, your needs are anticipated and met.

With Barix you will meet surgeons, nurses, nutritionists, anesthesiologists, support group leaders, and medical assistants who work only with bariatric patients. They understand your challenges as an individual and are most well informed about your needs and concerns as a bariatric patient.

Many former Barix patients whose lives have been changed by bariatric surgery devote their lives to sharing their success with others. Through Barix, you're more than likely to meet staff members who have been through bariatric surgery themselves.
