Preparing for Weight-Loss Surgery


Preparing for Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass Surgery

Our health care teams at Holy Cross Hospital in Silver Spring and Holy Cross Hospital in Germantown are ready to assist you and your family as you prepare for weight-loss surgery. We will take you through all the steps involved in your pre-operative and post-operative periods to ensure the best outcome. Our program offers you the right expertise, the right surgical techniques, and the right support to help you live better, healthier, and longer through weight-loss surgery.

What to Expect Prior to Surgery 

Our dedicated bariatric surgery coordinators will be speaking with you and answering any questions you may have prior to surgery.  You also will be meeting with your surgeon for consultation, testing and to determine which bariatric surgery is right for you. In the meantime, a member of your doctor’s staff will be happy to help you with your journey.
