We have proudly been helping hundreds of people beat the battle against obesity with weight loss surgery for nearly 20 years. Over the years we have been moved by so many incredible stories of our patients. Watching people start family’s, get their dream jobs, and grow in confidence are just a few things amongst the long list of non-scale victories that we see people achieve after their bariatric surgery. At Healthier Weight we can’t wait to continue to see these achievements from our patients and help them live their life to its fullest potential.
The stigma behind weight loss surgery…
Despite the life quality improvement and health benefits of weight loss surgery there is a clear stigma within society that prevents a lot of people from having the surgery. A recent survey showed that 39.1% of people believe weight loss surgery is “an easy way out” (Reuters.com). However, at Healthier Weight we pride ourselves on helping our patients who need it, live a healthier and happier life. Therefore, pushing to remove this stigma… and we need your help to do this.
