Dr. Dory specializes in partnering with patients to guide them and accompany them on their weight loss journey. After your initial consultation, she will formulate an individualized plan for your follow-up care. Studies show that patients who are engaged and committed to the process of making lifestyle changes are more likely to not only reach, but sustain their weight loss over the long term.
Routine care after bariatric surgery includes monitoring of weight loss, nutritional status, existing medical conditions, laboratory work and, for patients with a Lap-Band, annual swallow studies (esophagrams).
