FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Weight Loss Surgery Qualification

What if my BMI is exactly 35?

You may qualify if you have obesity-related health conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, or sleep apnea. Each case is evaluated individually by our medical team.

Most insurance and medical guidelines require documented attempts at non-surgical weight loss. However, private pay patients may have more flexibility in qualification requirements.

Age 65+ patients can qualify with comprehensive medical evaluation. We've successfully operated on patients up to age 75 with excellent outcomes.

Diabetes actually makes you a stronger candidate for surgery, especially gastric bypass, which has excellent diabetes remission rates (80-90%).

Previous surgery doesn't automatically disqualify you, but may influence which procedure is safest. Our experienced surgeons regularly operate on patients with surgical history.

How quickly can I get approved for surgery?

Most patients complete the qualification process within 2-4 weeks. Surgery can typically be scheduled within 4-8 weeks of approval.

Some patients may be asked to lose 5-10% of their body weight before surgery to reduce surgical risks and improve outcomes.

Being on stable antidepressant medication doesn't disqualify you. Mental health support is actually encouraged throughout the weight loss journey.

Sleep apnea is considered an obesity-related condition that makes you a stronger candidate for surgery, even with a lower BMI of 35.

Patients 18+ can qualify for surgery. Those under 18 require special evaluation and parental consent with strict criteria.
