Is losing weight on your mind? The CDC estimates about 93 million adults in the US are affected by obesity and rising. Obesity increases the risks of weight-related disease and early death. Common health conditions include type II diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, infertility, sleep apnea, certain cancers, and more. Metabolic and weight loss surgery has proven to be effective in the reduction of comorbid conditions and is the most durable and effective treatment for obesity. The ACS (American College of Surgeons) and the ASMBS (American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery) have developed accreditation standards for weight loss surgery to assist patients with obesity in identifying centers that provide optimal patient care.
