Chuck

Less than one year after bariatric surgery, Chuck is at 261 pounds, less than half of his peak weight.

The Center for Metabolic Health and Bariatric Surgery (CMHBS) at Brigham and Women’s Hospital is a full service, comprehensive Level 1A Center of Excellence accredited Bariatric Center with the American College of Surgeons. Our program offers quality care to every patient. Each patient plan is uniquely developed for the individual and their needs. Working alongside the surgeons are skilled clinicians that provide each patient the appropriate dietary, behavioral, and medical support to reduce negative events and maximize good outcomes.

Check your Body Mass Index (BMI) with our BMI Calculator. A BMI of 35+ qualifies for weight loss surgery.

Take your first step to a healthier life by joining our program and attending an information session! To learn more, contact Nicole Goodridge, New Patient Coordinator, at 617-732-8500, ext 1.
