Surgical Weight Loss
More than 10 million Americans suffer from morbid obesity and no diets, exercise program or drug has given them the ability to create a healthy body. People who are morbidly obese (more than 100 pounds over their “ideal” weight) have a much greater probability of suffering from other medical challenges like Diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease and other potential life-threatening diseases.
If this sounds like you or someone you love, you now have a new option through the surgical weight loss program at Menorah Medical Center.
