It was a great presentation, thank you Dora!

it's shocking how quickly society moves on from mass shootings

I’m glad Dr. Irgau talked about patient consultation being key everyone’s journey is so different and individualized

That diet sounds intense but necessary for a smoother surgery!

It's interesting how they break down different glucose goals for varying patient groups based on their health conditions. It's not one-size-fits-all, which makes diabetes management more personalized.

Loved hearing about the bipartisan gun-free school zone bill! #unitedmedical #umedtv

It’s good to know that reflux might not be as big of an issue with the sleeve as I thought. Glad to have that myth busted! #umedtv #unitedmedical

Gastric sleeve surgery is used to treat severe obesity. It’s advised for people who have tried other weight-loss methods without long-term success. Your healthcare provider may advise gastric sleeve surgery if you are severely obese with a body mass index (BMI) over 40. Your provider may also advise it if you have a BMI between 35 and 40 and a health condition from your obesity. This may include sleep apnea, high blood pressure, heart disease, or type 2 diabetes.

Gastric bypass can help a person lose about 100 pounds of excess weight. It may also improve, or in some cases even reverse type 2 diabetes. It can also improve or stop heartburn and reflux. Weight-loss surgery can also lower the risk for high blood pressure or improve it for people that already have it. A gastric bypass can also help with sleep apnea, and certain other health problems such as high cholesterol. Thank you Dr Irgau 👏🏻😊

Thank you for this informative session with Caroline and Amanda #unitedmedical #bariatricfriday

Before having surgery, you’ll need to enroll in a bariatric surgery education program. This will help you get ready for surgery, and life after surgery. You’ll have nutritional counseling. And you may have a psychological evaluation. You’ll also need physical exams and tests, such as a chest X-ray, blood tests, and electrocardiogram. You may have imaging studies of your stomach, or have an upper endoscopy to better see your digestive system. Thank you Mr Erkan and Dr Irgau for this informative session #unitedmedical #umedtv #bariatricfriday
