Weight Loss Surgery in San Francisco
Achieving and maintaining your optimal weight is a key to physical and emotional well-being, and St. Mary's offers a wealth of resources designed to help patients reach their goals.
Obesity is a common disease in San Francisco, as well as the rest of the United States and the world. When a person has severe obesity, it can lead to further health problems such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, kidney disease, and respiratory issues. Many people with morbid obesity have tried to rectify the problem themselves using diet and exercise. While many people have some success, they tend to only gain it back. Others don't see much success at all. This is not due to a lack of willpower or the wrong strategy; when a person has a body mass index greater than 35, their chances of reaching and sustaining a normal body weight are slim to none. That is why weight loss surgery is an excellent option for anyone suffering from morbid obesity.
St Mary's Surgical Weight Loss Program is designed to help you easily meet your health and fitness goals. Prime candidates for this program have tried to lose weight in the past without success; our surgical weight loss procedure helps patients gain control of their health and get the body they have always wanted.
Bariatric Surgery to Curb Morbid Obesity in San Francisco, CA
Changes in diet and lifestyle, which form the core of successful weight-loss plans, aren't always enough. For people with morbid obesity or other metabolic health issues such as Type 2 diabetes, weight-loss surgery, technically known as bariatric surgery, may be the best option when all else fails. Studies show that people who undergo weight loss surgery extend their life expectancy. In most cases, their weight-related ailments disappear, eliminating their need for medications to treat such problems as diabetes, high blood pressure, snoring and sleep apnea. They feel better, look better, and are able to lead more active and rewarding lives.
Bariatric surgery can not only give you a slimmer physique – it can be crucial to lowering your risk of life-threatening health conditions. For many overweight men and women, weight-loss surgery is often the best and safest option for long-term weight loss. Bariatric surgery can help lower blood sugar, eliminate the need for medications, and improve diabetes-related health problems in people affected by obesity. Surgical procedures we perform in San Francisco include sleeve gastrectomy, gastric banding, and gastric bypass.

Defeat Type 2 Diabetes
Diabetes is an impairment in the way that your body uses and regulates sugar as fuel. Type 2 diabetes is more common in older adults; if you have type 2 diabetes, your pancreas doesn't produce enough insulin and your cells respond poorly to the insulin it does produce. Being overweight and inactive are key contributing factors when it comes to type 2 diabetes, so it's important to keep these factors in mind, especially if you have a family history of the condition. Managing your weight can help you avoid or manage your type 2 diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes is a problem that is growing throughout America. With many Americans who are currently obese, the rate of Type 2 diabetes also continues to climb. At St. Mary's, we understand the challenges associated with losing weight on your own.
