Understanding Weight Loss Surgery

Your decision to have weight loss surgery should be an informed one. Well help you understand procedures, answer your questions and give you all the resources you need for your weight loss journey.

HCA Virginia provides free weight loss surgery information for anyone interested in learning more about gastric bypass, REALIZE Band and Lap Band surgery options as well as laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Discuss procedures with our surgeons and ask any questions you may have.

The Importance of Support

Support groups give weight loss surgery patients an invaluable opportunity to share their personal experiences with weight loss and learn from others experience. For example, most people learn that weight loss surgery will not immediately resolve existing emotional issues or heal the years of damage that morbid obesity might have inflicted on their emotional well-being. Attend our support groups and learn how others are managing their emotional and physical barriers through their weight loss journey.
