Bariatric Surgery at Surgical Associates Helps Jodi Lead a Happier and More Energized Life

“My experience with Surgical Associates and Dr. Tony Tabatabai have been nothing but positive and life changing. If you’re on the fence about exploring Bariatric surgery, my advice is go for it! The team is made up of wonderful people who have your best interest and health in mind. They are supportive and helpful at walking hand-in-hand with you thru your journey. I’m 3 months post op from gastric sleeve surgery and I feel terrific! I have had zero complications from surgery and consider myself extremely lucky to have had this opportunity to take control of my weight, my health and my life. Since I decided to make a change in August of 2020, I have lost a total of 71 pounds.”

My heaviest weight was 364 lbs. my surgery weight was 326 lbs and my current weight is 293 lbs! Loving this tool!
