Northwest Bariatrics

A comprehensive weight loss center Bariatric surgery at Northwest Bariatrics in Idaho is more than a surgical procedure -- it is a life-altering decision.

If you or someone you know is struggling with obesity and suffering from its devastating health conditions, Surgical Bariatrics Northwest can help. With a highly trained multidisciplinary group of professionals, we are able to provide our patients with safe and effective operative procedures which will help them reach and maintain their weight loss goals. Specializing in minimally-invasive laparoscopic gastrointestinal surgery for 15 years, Dr. John L. Pennings performs laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, and laparoscopic adjustable gastric band surgeries. He is experienced with both the LAP-BAND® and Realize™ Band systems and has performed several revisional bariatric surgeries. To support you on your weight loss journey, we have professional staff available pre and post-operatively to help you understand how the changes of bariatric surgery may impact your life. Support groups are held weekly to insure a smooth transition to a normal, healthy weight. You will also be monitored by a registered dietitian, who will follow your metabolic functions closely with precise metabolic testing, utilizing indirect calorimetry and body composition testing with the highly accurate BodPod system. Following bariatric surgery, many people are interested in enhancing their physical appearance. We offer our patients reconstructive plastic surgery and in-office Smartlipo™ body contouring procedures. We also address esthetic needs with Affirm™ anti-aging skin tightening, facial rejuvenation, and permanent laser hair removal. It’s our goal to help each of our patients live healthier, lighter and longer! We welcome you to explore our website to learn more about your bariatric surgery options in Idaho.

We love hearing about our patient stories and how they were able to get their life back after bariatric surgery! Check out this amazing story:

Highest Weight- 311 lbs
Current Weight- 218 lbs
Goal Weight- 170 lbs

So incredibly thankful every single day for this tool which has allowed me to get down to a weight I haven’t been since I was 16, something every single diet and lifestyle change I’ve tried in the past couldn’t do! I feel better than ever- off blood pressure meds, no achy joints, full of energy, able to run around with my 3 year old and exercise! It might seem cliche to say, however I’m saying it anyways because it’s 100% true- THIS SURGERY HAS GIVEN ME MY LIFE BACK! I can’t wait to see how I feel at my goal weight.

If you’ve struggled with weight your entire life and you’re contemplating surgery- DO IT! It is not easy, but I promise it will be worth it.
