Bariatric Surgery Seminars
Your First Step with Our Program
A decision as important as bariatric surgery should not be taken lightly. You probably have a lot of questions, such as:
- Do I need bariatric surgery?
- Which surgery is best for me?
- What are the risks and rewards?
- How will it change my life and how soon?
Bariatric surgery can unlock amazing potential for patients in need, offering a way to facilitate lasting weight loss in those otherwise unable to lose weight or maintain a healthy weight. However, the amount of information required to make an educated decision can often feel overwhelming, especially for those new to the process. With a bariatric seminar at the Detroit Medical Center, you can learn all you need to know about the exciting opportunities that await you, including:
- What makes the DMC stand out, including our practice and healthcare philosophies
- Information on each bariatric procedure we perform, along with the risks and benefits of surgery
- General information, including statistics on surgery, expected outcomes, and the ideal candidate for each procedure
- Eligibility requirements
- Insurance coverage
Online Seminar
The online seminar takes less than an hour to view. Be sure you’re in a quiet place, free of distractions or interruptions. You can pause the video at any time. This seminar is interactive, and there will be review questions for your benefit to help reinforce the information that was presented. If you have any questions about bariatric surgery not answered by the seminar, jot them down and bring them to your first appointment.
