Our surgical program has a dedicated team to follow you every step of the way. Your multi-disciplinary team includes surgeons, (bariatric) nurses, dietitians, mental health professionals, exercise specialists, bariatric advocates and other medical specialists who offer continuous compassionate support and guidance in a respectful environment.
The focus is to help each patient establish and achieve their goals.
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.
