No surgery group can boast a more dedicated or organized program of patient education and long-term support. Commonwealth Surgeons is fully committed to offering the total package, physical, emotional and psychological support, to ensure that our patients understand the commitment and enjoy the success of weight loss surgery throughout their lives. This means teaching our patients the risks of the surgery and offering counsel regarding behavior modification, nutrition and exercise both before and after the procedure.

This surgery should only be considered after careful research that includes consulting with your Commonwealth surgeon regarding treatment options and attending our educational sessions. The goal of weight loss surgery is to help people make healthy, life-long changes. Positive side effects of significant weight loss typically include an overall healthier, happier life, a better life expectancy, less dependence on medication, an improved body image and self esteem.
