Bariatric Surgery
Your Journey, Your Choice
If you’re living with the disease of obesity, you know how dramatically it affects every aspect of your life. You also know your health is seriously at risk—you feel it every day. But you don’t have to go on struggling under the burden of morbid obesity. There’s hope, and people who care.
St. Luke's offers both surgical and non-surgical weight loss support. If you’re considering weight loss surgery, our surgeons achieve successful outcomes well above the national average. We’ll help you evaluate your options and choose the surgery that’s right for you. And we’ll be with you every step of the way—before, during and after surgery.
