WELCOME PATIENTS WHO HAVE HAD WEIGHT LOSS SURGERY.
We are happy to further support you in your ongoing needs to maintain your weight loss or improve the results of your weight loss surgery.
We have a good working relationship with Salem Health and Legacy Emmanuel Bariatric Programs and understand the surgery process very well.
If your surgery has been less than two years ago, you may schedule an initial appointment with one of our physicians. If it has been more than two years or if you have had more than 10% weight regain, we recommend you start with our six month new patient program.
Your first visit will be a little longer than 30 minutes in order to make the transition smooth. We will update your interim medical history and discuss how you are doing in the areas of nutrition, activity, sleep, and stress management. We will take a look to make sure any medications you may be taking are working for you and your health. We will also make sure we are up to date on labs. Future appointments will be closer to 30min but never rushed.
You can get started by clicking on the register link and inputting your information. You may choose to be seen every one, two, or three months. It is preferred not to go longer than three months in between visits to maintain a high level of engagement and success (unless of course, you and your doctor decide otherwise). With your permission, our health coach will contact you by email, text, or phone to check in, encourage and answer questions in between appointments..
Finally, you will need to choose a method of payment. You may choose to input your credit card information for a prorated monthly fee determined by how often you want your appointments scheduled OR you may choose to pay by cash, debit, or credit, HSA card at the time of your appointment.
You don’t need a referral and we can give you a receipt of services you may want to submit to your insurance.
