Weight Loss Care as Personal as Your Story
Losing weight is hard. Doing it alone is harder and you shouldn’t have to. At Orlando Health Weight Loss and Bariatric Surgery Institute, board-certified surgeons, obesity medicine specialists, dietitians and counselors listen to your story, understand your goals and build a plan around you. From your first free information session through surgery, medication or both — and every follow-up after — we’re with you for the whole journey.

In addition to surgical options, we offer comprehensive medical weight loss treatments, including FDA-approved injectables and other medications to support your journey. We look at the whole picture when it comes to weight management. Our approach is all about seeing you as a whole person and offering personalized support, no matter where you are on your journey to better health.
In addition to board-certified surgeons, our institute team also includes specialized nurses, registered dietitians, patient-family counselors and other medical professionals with specialized training — all committed to care for and support you as you reach each milestone, and for the rest of your life.

Accredited Metabolic and Bariatric Center
Why Accreditation Matters
Accredited centers have been independently reviewed and meet strict guidelines for expert care and safety, with proven success rates with lower complications. Choosing an MBSAQIP-accredited center means choosing a team that puts your health and safety first.
We are accredited as a Comprehensive Center with adolescent and obesity medicine, under the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program (MBSAQIP®), a joint program of the American College of Surgeons (ACS) and the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS). This is a designation respected worldwide, recognizing healthcare facilities that provide safe, high-quality surgical care and quality outcomes.
The Orlando Health Weight Loss and Bariatric Surgery Institute is one of just two facilities in central Florida (and only three nationwide) to be recognized with all three prestigious accreditations.
