Am I Eligible for Bariatric Surgery?
Bariatric surgery is a great way to help build a healthy lifestyle, but it's not for everyone. For weight loss surgery to be a viable option, patients must meet the following criteria:
You're 100 pounds or more over your ideal weight and have one of the following conditions:
- A body mass index, or BMI, between 35 and 40, and
- Diabetes
- Sleep Apnea
- High Blood Pressure
- Your weight is causing health problems
- Or have a BMI of 40 or more and none of the above health conditions.
Disclaimer: Surgery may be associated with its own set of problems, such as infection, poor wound healing, and rarely even death. Therefore, you and your surgeon should carefully discuss the risks of your current health condition compared to the risks and benefits of surgery.
If you're not eligible for bariatric surgery learn more about Mercy's non-surgical options.
