Bariatric surgery is one of the most effective evidence-based treatments for severe obesity and obesity-related diseases. Beyond weight loss, metabolic and bariatric surgery improves overall health, reduces the burden of chronic disease, and enhances long-term quality of life. These procedures can lead to significant improvement or remission of conditions such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, obstructive sleep apnea, fatty liver disease, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
Dr. Farhad Anoosh is a fellowship-trained bariatric and foregut surgeon, board-certified general surgeon, and Diplomate of the American Board of Obesity Medicine. His practice combines advanced minimally invasive and robotic surgery with comprehensive obesity medicine to provide individualized, patient-centered care. Every treatment recommendation is tailored to the patient’s health, goals, and long-term well-being.
Successful obesity treatment is not defined by the operation alone. It begins with a comprehensive evaluation and continues through lifelong follow-up. Some patients achieve excellent results with lifestyle modification and medical therapy, while others benefit most from surgery. The goal is to recommend the right treatment for the right patient at the right time.
Whenever appropriate, procedures are performed using robotic-assisted technology, providing exceptional visualization and surgical precision. Potential benefits include smaller incisions, less postoperative discomfort, faster recovery, shorter hospitalization, and excellent outcomes in complex and revisional surgery.
Long-term success depends on far more than surgery. Patients receive ongoing guidance regarding nutrition, physical activity, behavioral strategies, vitamin supplementation, weight maintenance, and management of obesity-related diseases. As a Diplomate of the American Board of Obesity Medicine, Dr. Anoosh integrates medical and surgical treatment to support lifelong metabolic health.
Patients experiencing weight regain, inadequate weight loss, GERD after sleeve gastrectomy, or complications from previous bariatric procedures may benefit from revisional surgery. A comprehensive evaluation—including upper endoscopy, imaging, Bravo™ pH monitoring, and high-resolution esophageal manometry when appropriate—helps determine the safest and most effective treatment plan.
Optimal outcomes are achieved through collaboration with primary care physicians, gastroenterologists, dietitians, endocrinologists, behavioral health professionals, sleep medicine specialists, and other healthcare providers when appropriate. This team-based approach helps patients achieve durable improvements in health.
