Many patients have a lot of questions before they see our providers in person. It is normal to want more information about something as personal and important as weight loss. With this in mind, we’ve compiled the most frequently asked questions that our practice receives about weight loss.

Dr. Shabatian and Dr. Salimitari established the practice in 2009. Our team has decades of experience in successfully treating patients with obesity and vein conditions.
Gastric sleeve surgery has become the most widely used bariatric procedure for good reason. It safely and effectively reduces appetite over time, making it far easier for patients to make the necessary dietary changes needed to achieve long-term weight loss.
After losing a great amount of weight, it is not uncommon to be left with some excess skin. Each person is different in the quantity of excess tissue that remains. There are a number of extremely safe and effective plastic surgeries that can effectively deal with these issues.
Most of our gastric sleeve patients go home the same day or the next morning and return to work within a week!
