Our Faculty

Successful and sustained weight loss for obesity is a team effort. Our faculty and specialists offer compassionate support and care through all stages of weight loss, from preoperative treatment to postsurgical strategies that help patients reach and maintain their goal weight. Our support groups, facilitated by weight-loss experts in a compassionate and encouraging environment, offer additional inspiration to help patients stay motivated.

Our surgical team is comprised of world-class surgeons who are board certified and fellowship trained in minimally invasive, bariatric surgery. As faculty of the Yale School of Medicine, our surgeons are internationally renowned for their research in obesity and their pioneering work in advancing laparoscopic techniques. They are experts in revision, or “re-do,” surgeries and teach physicians around the country minimally invasive, bariatric procedures.

Our program offers three different minimally invasive bariatric surgical techniques, which include Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, LAP-BAND ® surgery, and laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.

Our multidisciplinary team of experts includes specialists in medicine, nursing, nutrition, and psychology. Together, our surgeons and specialists are committed to meeting all patient needs: medical, physical, and emotional. They offer expert knowledge, guidance, and support to help patients stay motivated, on track, and uplifted every day of their weight-loss journey, while providing all the tools and education they need to maintain their new lifestyle.
