Wellness Community
Welcome to Suh Bariatric Wellness Community!
Have you ever been presented with so much information on a subject you were unsure where to turn, what to read, whom to believe? Once you decide to pursue bariatric surgery you will be amazed and overwhelmed with the varying opinions about what is the best weight loss procedure, post-op diet, exercise plan, protein, vitamin, and protocol. You will also hear the unfortunate biases about bariatric surgery.
Education is an empowering tool however; incorrect information can put you back on the path of unhealthy eating behaviors and weight regain.
Our goal is to provide you with the latest news in bariatrics, online resources, apps and science based data, along with updates about our office, support groups, seminars, bariatric reunions and much more.
Please visit often and use “Our Community” as a resource to help improve your education and understanding of the new, healthier life you are choosing to live.
If you have any questions, comments or suggestions about our Wellness Community please email us by using “Contact Us” and provide us with your feedback.
Thank you,
Dr. David Suh and Staff
