Bariatrist

Bariatrics is a relatively new branch of medicine that deals with the causes, prevention and treatment of obesity. Anyone who is obese or overweight and cannot lose weight after having tried numerous diets, should see a specialist.

During the visit, the bariatric doctor develops an obesity treatment plan taking into account the following:

• the causes of the patient’s obesity;
• patient’s lifestyle;
• patient’s eating habits;
• allergies;
• diseases.

Based on the obtained information, the doctor may propose the patient:

• conservative treatment;
• surgical treatment.

The consultation takes 20 minutes.
