We created this website as a guide to surgery for weight loss for patients and healthcare professionals in the south west of England. We provide background information on the rationale for surgery, two of the operations commonly performed, and information on postoperative care.
The information given does not constitute a guarantee of success and does not substitute for the information a doctor would give to an individual patient.
