Understanding Bariatric Surgery Eligibility and Process.
Are You a Candidate for Bariatric Surgery?
The most durable weight loss option now is bariatric surgery. Our professionals at Universal Medical Group in Tijuana, Mexico take a look at a few factors to decide whether you’re a candidate for this revolutionary therapy. In our holistic method, we do more than evaluate whether you’re suitable for gastric sleeve or gastric bypass surgery and take you through our holistic protocol so that you can have the most success in health and weight loss.
Eligibility Criteria for Bariatric Surgery
The new criteria for bariatric surgery have been more stringent, accepting the procedure as an option for the most severe cases of obesity and other disorders. BMI 35 or more, comorbidities excluded were previously required but guidelines have expanded eligibility. Now it includes people with a BMI of 30 or above, with or without comorbidities. We’ll look at your BMI, medical history, and prior weight loss to see if you pass the new standards.
