Find out how this newly FDA approved procedure can help you lose weight and get started on your new life without surgery. Fad diets don't work!

Surgery is both safe and effective, and the overall benefits outweigh the risks of surgery and remaining obese.
Obviously, any surgery involves some level of risk or possible complications, which is why you want a surgeon that is both knowledgeable and experienced. Since 2000, Dr. Naik has performed over 10,000 procedures, and has stayed on the cutting-edge of weight-loss surgery. The reason most diets don't work is because once you reach your goals, you go back to the bad habits that caused you to gain weight in the first place.

This is the newest and maybe one of the most exciting weight loss solutions to date. It focuses on developing long-term, long-lasting healthy choices and habits.

The BMI (Body Mass Index) is a scale that helps us to compare people of different heights and weights. A BMI of 35 or over with serious associated medical conditions will usually qualify you for being a weight loss surgery candidate. There are many risks associated with a high BMI. A BMI of 40 or greater is classified as morbid obesity, or obesity that has become clinically severe (see chart).
