What Is Post-Bariatric Care

Support for Life After Surgery

Weight-loss surgery, such as a gastric sleeve or gastric bypass, changes how your body takes in food and absorbs nutrients. Post-bariatric care helps you stay healthy, nourished and on track in the months and years that follow.

Many patients do well right after surgery and then find that the support thins out over time. I offer ongoing care that begins with an individualized evaluation of your surgery, your health history, your current eating habits and your recent labs.

Your plan may include nutrition and protein guidance, lab monitoring for common vitamin and mineral deficiencies, supplement planning, attention to hormone and energy concerns and support for weight maintenance. This care works alongside your bariatric surgeon and surgical program, not instead of them.

Surgery is a powerful tool. The care that comes after it helps you protect your results.

Science and Safety

Why Monitoring Matters, Safely

After bariatric surgery, you eat smaller portions and, depending on the procedure, your body may absorb certain nutrients less efficiently. Deficiencies in vitamin B12, iron, vitamin D, calcium, folate and thiamine are among the most common, and most patients are advised to take vitamin and mineral supplements for life. Regular lab work helps find low levels before they cause problems such as fatigue, anemia or bone loss.

I review your surgery type, medications, supplements and labs before making any recommendation, and I coordinate with the guidance from your surgical program. Some symptoms need urgent attention, including severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, signs of bleeding or being unable to keep fluids down. If you have any of these, contact your surgeon or seek emergency care right away.
