What To Expect Immediately After Your Bariatric Surgery
This article aims to give you a better idea of what to expect immediately after your bariatric surgery. This is not to say that preparations for surgery and the few weeks before surgery are not critical, nor is the longer-term bariatric recovery trivial. There are many important things to remember, the most vital of which is to listen to your surgeon’s instructions and any instructions provided by our clinical staff, including Jenny, our bariatrician. Similarly, postoperatively, we want to ensure you don’t have any vitamin deficiencies, so take your multivitamins and any other prescribed vitamins religiously. You also want to ensure you hydrate, which is crucial to losing weight and staying strong throughout the process.
“I always lived my life hiding behind my weight, but since having surgery I’ve learned to love myself again.
My advice to anyone is to trust the journey.”

From the initial consultation to the post-operative follow-ups, your expertise and dedication were evident. Dr. Crean, your reassuring demeanor and thorough explanations helped alleviate my anxieties and made me feel confident in the procedure. The entire team at Equip demonstrated remarkable skill and compassion, ensuring I felt comfortable and well-cared for at every step.

“5 stars is not enough! Dr. Webb saved my life not once but twice!!! I had a duodenal switch 12/22 and then my gallbladder removed 3/23… I had some complications there for a minute but Dr. Webb returned every call and his staff was with me every step of the way! Now in after care I have lost 137 pounds (thanks to his guidance) I needed a lipoma removed (done with minimal scarring) I am now (8/24) ready for the next step and that’s skin removal and hernia repair and yet again I’m choosing Dr. Webb and his team!!! They truly care and stick by their patients! He truly is a God send and choosing anyone else would be a mistake!”

“Dr. Abbas is an outstanding surgeon who has extremely high expectations for how his patients are treated. Dr. Abbas goes above and beyond to make sure his patients have low risks of post-surgery complications. Luckily, I had a simple gall bladder removal. If I ever need a general surgeon again, I will absolutely have Dr. Abbas and NO ONE ELSE!”

“Dr Alexander Crean and those who assist him are absolutely the best! I live with many complicated health problems that have required a variety of diagnoses, well thought out treatment strategies, sometimes advanced types of therapy, and necessary surgery. Some of my problems can be made better, others not so much or as easily. Regardless of the degree of complexity that surrounds my care, Dr Crean and PA’s like Kirk, for example, are consistently outstanding. They share a true, deep commitment to caring for their patients on the inside and outside, not just physically but also emotionally, providing reassurance, empathy, hope and understanding. Great doctors!”
