The Center for Weight Loss Surgery at Middlesex Hospital

The life you imagine is within your reach.

Imagine your diabetes – cured; your sleep apnea – cured; your high blood pressure – cured. Imagine riding a bicycle, taking long walks, tying your shoes and enjoying activities that you once took for granted. If you're struggling with obesity, it can be hard to imagine your life differently. But with gastric bypass, Lapband ™, or weight loss surgery, change is possible.

At the Center for Weight Loss Surgery at Middlesex Hospital in Middletown, Connecticut, we understand what you're going through. We have earned the American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery's (ASMBS) Center of Excellence designation for our demonstrated track record of favorable outcomes following thousands of bariatric procedures. It's a designation we are very proud of, and one you can take comforting in knowing about us.

When it's time to take back your life, we can help you take the first step.

Weight loss surgery is an appropriate alternative for patients who have tried all conservative measures to control their weight and have failed. At the Center for Weight Loss Surgery at Middlesex Hospital, we know that we can treat patients successfully, reduce the risk and severity of their problems, and improve their quality of life.

The prospect of having an operation to solve your weight problem is a big step, but it takes a big step to solve a big problem. It is only after all other reasonable measures at weight reduction have failed that weight loss surgery should be considered.

Bariatric surgery is intended only for those diagnosed with clinically severe or morbid obesity, and may not be right for everyone. But through a comprehensive evaluation of your history and your health, we can help you make that decision.
