Emory Bariatric Center
The Emory Difference
Emory Bariatric Center is the only weight loss center in the region to offer both surgical and non-surgical long-term weight loss options. This one-of-a-kind program is the only one affiliated with and operated by Emory Healthcare. Many insurance companies also have designated Emory as a Bariatric Surgery Center of Excellence.
Providing the best medical and behavioral options currently available as well as the safest and most effective bariatric surgery techniques, the Emory Bariatric Center in Atlanta, Georgia, partners with each patient to address his or her individual needs. As an academic research center, we offer expertise, treatment, medication and technology that often are not available in the general community.
Our expertise and commitment to long-term weight loss are why patients come to us and refer us to friends. You can depend on us to help you lose weight, live more comfortably, gain more control over your life, sustain healthy nutrition, and sustain healthy physical activity.
