Not sure which path fits you?

Both weight loss surgery and physician-supervised medical weight loss are effective ways to lose significant weight and keep it off. The right one depends on your health, your weight loss history, and your goals. The first step is an evaluation with Dr. Baptista, a bariatric surgeon who offers both, so the recommendation is based on what's right for you.
