Why Choose a Mercy Bariatric Center?

Most of Mercy’s Bariatric programs have achieved prestigious accreditation through various programs. An accreditation signifies a level of excellence in the field of bariatric medicine that means better outcomes for patients. Some insurance carriers require that you have your surgery at an accredited center, but it’s a good idea even if your insurance does not require it.
