Making the decision to have weight loss surgery can be a difficult one. That's why Dr. David Swedler says CHI Saint Joseph Health offers a bariatric seminar.

David Swedler, DO, Center for Weight Loss Surgery at Saint Joseph East

The bariatric seminar is a great place to start to get a wide view of the surgeries, what to expect before surgery, the surgery itself, after surgery, and really become more familiar with our people, the services we provide, the long-term follow-up we provide, and give people a great starting point. No commitment there. It's just purely education out there for people to learn and see if this is something for them.

Going forward with this surgery is a life-changing event. It helps people be able to live the life that maybe they used to live, and because of the weight, they are not able to be as active or have other medical problems. It gets them back to where they want to be.

Our board-certified surgeons offer a full range of weight loss procedures, using the most minimally invasive techniques available. Watch the free, online seminar today to learn more.
