We Provide Evaluation​

We understand how difficult it can be to make the decision to undergo bariatric surgery. That is why we are dedicated to providing a comprehensive evaluation process to ensure that you are an appropriate candidate for the procedure.

Every patient will be required to complete the following evaluations: a medical and surgical examination, psychological evaluation, and nutrition assessment. By reviewing your medical history, our team can determine if there are any underlying conditions that may impact your eligibility for the procedure.

Rest assured that our team of experienced medical professionals will assess your overall health and provide you with the necessary information to make an informed decision about bariatric surgery.

We Identify Operative Risks

Secondly, to ensure that all of our patients are fully informed before deciding on undergoing the surgery, we need to determine your operative risks and realistic outcomes before you get any type of treatment. Ideal candidates for bariatric surgery include:

  - over 18 years old 
- have a body mass index (BMI) of 40 
- have a 35-40 BMI with a co-morbid condition such as diabetes, sleep apnea, or hypertension   

During this consultation, we analyze each patient’s individual risk factors and discuss how those may affect their chances for a successful surgery. From there, we take steps to minimize those risks whenever possible through our pre-operative preparation program. We also create a personalized treatment plan that accounts for each patient’s individual needs and goals to ensure that all bariatric patients are physically and mentally prepared for the surgery.

We Treat Various Types of Bariatric Patients

Out-Of-Town Patients

For out-of-town patients, the biggest challenge is often the distance between them and their bariatric care provider. This can be especially problematic if they need to travel to see the provider on a regular basis.   As a renowned regional provider of weight loss surgeries for nearly two decades, we have proudly provided exceptional care for patients from Parker, Denver, and surrounding communities throughout Colorado, including Wyoming and New Mexico. Regardless of your location, we can assist you in setting up follow-up care with your local primary care physician in your own hometown.

Self-Pay Patients

Many of our patients are unable to receive bariatric surgery coverage from their insurance providers and must pay for their procedures out-of-pocket. We understand how expensive bariatric care can be, and we strive to make our self-pay options as affordable as possible while still providing a comprehensive treatment program. To learn more about our billing and insurance, please contact us.   At our bariatric practice, we understand that no two bariatric patients are the same. That’s why we strive to provide individualized care and attention to each and every patient to ensure top-quality results. Whether you’re an out-of-towner or self-payer, our team at Colorado Bariatric Surgery Institute will provide you with the best care possible.
