KC Bariatric has been in practice since 2002, providing weight loss surgery care to thousands of patients in the metropolitan Kansas City and surrounding mid-west areas. We provide patient education, full preoperative evaluation of each patient's mental and physical health, coordination of care, assistance with insurance issues, and post-operative support groups in order to help ensure the safety and success of our patients. Weight loss surgery is not cosmetic surgery, nor does it actually "remove" a patient's excess weight. It is a TOOL that assists in weight loss and weight maintenance for patients who are 100 or more pounds overweight and who have failed weight loss through traditional dietary and behavior modifications. If you or someone you love is obese, you know how difficult life can be. Excess weight impacts your health, your self-esteem, and your relationships. People with obesity are at greater risk for serious health conditions such as high blood pressure, sleep apnea, and diabetes. When diet and exercise aren't working, it may seem like there is no hope. At KC Bariatric, we specialize in providing alternatives for the care and treatment of obesity and its related co-morbidities in the forms of Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass and LapBand Gastric Banding Surgeries. If you are considering the decision to undergo weight loss surgery, you'll want to educate yourself on these life-changing procedures. We are here to answer all of your questions and to determine if you are a candidate for surgery through our program.

"My doctor told me that basically my body is working against me when it comes to trying to lose weight and keep it off. This decision saved me in more ways than one! After losing the weight, I could finally get up and down off the floor without needing assistance. My knees stopped hurting. I was able to be a functioning participant in my granddaughters lives. I also quit drinking (sober now for 869 days), I truly care about the food and vitamins that go into my body. And I am definitely a more body confident person. I no longer have hypothyroidism. My hypoglycemia doesn’t affect me as much. And I don’t cringe when I have to step on the scale. There are so many benefits that I have gained from losing the weight. If you follow the plan set for you, you will lose the weight and keep it off. I started this weight loss journey at 284 pounds. I currently weigh 154 pounds. I have maintained my 130 pound weight loss without having weight gain in the 4 years i have been on this lifestyle change. I am the healthiest I have ever been. My suggestion to you is, if you’re on the fence about your decision ask more questions, Get more advice from others, And don’t rush your decision until you are completely ready to take the steps that are needed for the rest of your life."

Our Story

We are a surgical weight loss program located in the Kansas City area that provides surgical excellence within a compassionate atmosphere along with lifelong quality patient support and after care. The Bariatric Center of Kansas City has been in practice since 2002, providing weight loss surgery care to thousands of patients in the metropolitan Kansas City and surrounding mid-west areas. Our program provides all the essential components as recommended by the National Institute of Health to achieve successful laparoscopic weight loss surgery. We provide patient education both individually and through public seminars, full preoperative evaluation of each patient's mental and physical health, coordination of care, assistance with insurance issues, and post-operative support groups in order to help ensure the safety and success of our patients. Weight loss surgery is not cosmetic surgery, nor does it actually "remove" a patient's excess weight. It is a TOOL that assists in weight loss and weight maintenance for patients who are 100 or more pounds overweight and who have failed weight loss through traditional dietary and behavior modifications. If you or someone you love is obese, you know how difficult life can be. Excess weight impacts your health, your self esteem and your relationships. People with obesity are at greater risk for serious health conditions such as high blood pressure, sleep apnea and diabetes. When diet and exercise aren't working, it may seem like there is no hope. But at the Bariatric Center of Kansas City, we specialize in providing alternatives for the care and treatment of obesity and its related co-morbidities in the form of Laparoscopic Gastric Sleeve or Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Surgeries. If you are considering the decision to undergo weight loss surgery, you'll want to educate yourself on these life-changing procedures.
