Weight Loss Surgery (Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass)

Palo Alto Medical Foundation

Helping You Meet Your Weight Loss Goal

PAMF's weight loss surgery (WLS) program involves coordinated medical care that includes:

  • Monitoring and evaluation by the physician
  • Nutritional guidance
  • Psychological counseling
  • Shared Medical Appointments

Our Program

The decision to have WLS involves significant life changes. The new procedure, also known as bariatric surgery, is available to patients who are significantly overweight (more than 100 pounds) and have been unsuccessful with traditional weight reduction methods.
