Delmarva Bariatric Center is committed to excellence in the field of bariatric surgery. We recognize that outcomes are not only measured by surgical performance, but also in terms of the pre- and aftercare needed for a patient to make a successful transition to a healthy lifestyle.
Accordingly, we have a structured Weight Reduction Management Program that is mandatory, and begins concurrently with your initial physician consultation. While some patients perform admirably without comprehensive management of the non-medical component of obesity, they have a significantly better opportunity for success if that program is present.Your Weight Reduction Management Program includes:

• Membership in our fitness center for twelve months
• Weekly meeting groups providing support, education and occasional guest speaker
• Monthly nutrition class
• Four sessions with our personal trainer. Two in the gym to establish your exercise regimen, and two on a consultative basis to discuss options to improve your nutrition
• Impedence Plethysmography / Body Composition analysis to determine body fat percentage
• Eating Well After Weight Loss Surgery and Eating for Life, which provide the core to our nutritional program
• All data tracked over time with a computer printout to monitor progress
