Yes, absolutely. Bariatric surgery is not just for weight loss; it can actually help control and even reverse life-threatening obesity-related conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, heart disease, and high cholesterol. After surgery, hormonal changes improve metabolism and insulin sensitivity, which helps normalize sugar and blood pressure levels.

Many patients are even able to reduce or completely stop their diabetes and BP medicines within days to weeks after surgery. So yes, when done scientifically in experienced hands, bariatric surgery can be life-saving for patients with severe obesity and its complications.
