Nutrition Resources
Our team of registered dietitians specialize in obesity and weight management and are here to support you through the weight loss program. You will meet with your dietitian several times prior to surgery to identify any nutritional or educational needs, establish realistic interventions and create a plan that will promote success after surgery. Your dietitian will continue to be a valuable resource as you adapt to your new way of living after surgery.
