Bariatric Fashion Show

The team at MASJax was star struck watching these amazing individuals show off their accomplishments and results from hard work and determination to lifestyle change. A total of over 3,000 lbs…gone!

We think the beautiful smiles say it all, but it is obvious that confidence was running high. We are grateful to be a part of so many weight loss journeys and success stories at MASJax in Jacksonville, FL. We know each patient is a unique individual whose goals are personal and important. Helping you meet your weight loss goals and maintain your health is our passion.

Our team wants to be on your team! We are excited to cheer you on and lift you up. Whether you are looking to start your weight loss journey, or have been a patient of ours for a while, we want you to know we are here for every milestone and bump in the road. Being a bariatric patient is a lifelong commitment, so it is important to connect with a practice that you trust and feel comfortable with.

The bariatric fashion show gives us the opportunity to celebrate our patients. It is an honor each time a patient entrusts us with their care. While anytime you have surgery you are placing your life in the hands of a surgeon, with bariatric surgery it is more than just your time in the operating room. We like to say that the procedure is only a tool to aid you in your new lifestyle. With bariatric surgery, there is a much greater factor of life change involved than almost any other surgery.
