Diagnosis for bariatric surgery involves a thorough evaluation to determine if a patient is a suitable candidate for weight-loss surgery. Doctors assess BMI, medical history, obesity-related conditions, and previous weight-loss attempts.
Blood tests, hormonal evaluations, and imaging studies may be recommended to identify underlying issues. Psychological assessments ensure the patient is mentally prepared for surgery and long-term lifestyle changes. Based on the complete evaluation, the surgeon confirms whether bariatric surgery is a safe and effective option.
If you qualify to proceed with bariatric surgery your surgeon may recommend you some lab tests and instructions to prepare for the specific type of weight loss surgery that can be the best option for you.
Here are the procedures of all types of bariatric surgeries.
