Weight Loss & Bariatric Surgery in Houston, TX

Representing the best in their fields, UT Physicians bariatric surgeons bring special expertise to their patients to treat obesity by modification of the gastrointestinal tract to reduce nutrient intake and/or absorption. For individuals who have been unable to achieve significant weight loss through diet modifications and exercise programs alone, bariatric surgery may help to attain a more healthy body weight.

Our surgeons are respected pioneers in minimally-invasive procedures.  UT Physicians bariatric surgeons provide a comprehensive bariatric surgery program and perform more than 400 laparoscopic bariatric procedures each year.
