Alexian Brothers Advanced Weight Solutions
About Us
When traditional weight loss methods haven't worked, it may be time to consider other options. Alexian Brothers Advanced Weight Solutions offers expert medical treatment, behavioral support and surgical interventions that hold the promise of a new beginning.
If traditional weight loss methods have not worked for you, bariatric surgery may be the answer you’ve been looking for. Surgical solutions, such as adjustable gastric banding and gastric bypass surgery, have proven very effective in treating morbid weight management and dangerous medical conditions that accompany extra weight.
Some reasons to consider a surgical solution:
- Diet and exercise alone typically do not have a long-term impact on morbid weight management
- Surgery is the only proven method for long-term weight control when other therapies have failed
- Surgery can improve physical mobility and stamina
We have been awarded the following designations and certifications:
- American Society of Bariatric Surgery Center of Excellence for Alexian Brothers Medical Center
- Blue Cross Blue Shield Association Designated Center for Bariatric Surgery at Alexian Brothers Medical Center
- Joint Commission Disease-Specific Care Certification in Bariatric Surgery for both Alexian Brothers Medical Center and St. Alexius Medical Center
