Sentara Martha Jefferson Weight Loss Surgery

If you are experiencing health problems because of your weight, your doctor may suggest weight loss surgery. Sentara Martha Jefferson Bariatric Care Center offers a number of options, including the gastric bypass, the gastric sleeve, band-to-bypass or band-to-sleeve conversion and the ORBERA™ gastric balloon.

We view weight loss surgery as a tool—one you can use, along with healthy eating, exercise and healthy behaviors—to help you manage your weight. Bariatric surgery is the first step in the journey to achieving and maintaining a healthy weight. And with a healthy weight comes a wealth of benefits, like normal blood sugars, lower blood pressure, more active days and more restful nights.

The Charlottesville bariatric surgery team consists of surgeons, nurses, dietitians and clinic staff who are with you every step of the way. From the preparation for surgery to the recovery and transition period following surgery.
