BARIATRIC SURGERY
Dr. Rizwan Chaudhry has performed thousands of bariatric and general surgery procedures, including Gastric Bypass, Gastric Sleeve, Hernia Repair, and many more. The most important point of our procedures is that they are not temporary spot-fixes for obesity - these procedures are designed to be long-term tools that aid in a healthier lifestyle. With detailed suggestions and health-conscious tips, these healthier lifestyles are cultivated over time alongside the minimally-invasive procedures.

HEAR FROM OUR PATIENTS

"I have lost 120.5 pounds. I knew I needed to take control of my life. I fretted over making the first appointment to see Dr. Chaudhry. He was amazing. He was very detailed in explaining my options and truly made me feel comfortable.
​
For once a doctor was supportive of helping me be successful, not judging me as if I had made bad life choices. He recommended the Gastric Sleeve. I had let life get the best of me.
​
When I saw Dr. Chaudhry I weighed 274 pounds. I am now 154 pounds almost 10 months post-op. I am enjoying things that I either physically couldn’t do or I was embarrassed.
​
My outside now matches my inside. I am proud of who I am. I am proud of what I have become."
UNDERSTANDING OBESITY
What does it really mean to be obese?
Obesity is a chronic illness that affects the lives of millions of Americans. In fact, more than 1 out of every 3 American adults are obese today and that number is rapidly climbing. For decades, obesity was simply viewed as a state of being extremely overweight due to increased dietary intake or not exercising enough. We now know that obesity is not simply due to overeating and not hitting the gym. There are multiple other factors that lead to obesity (genetics, hormonal imbalances, environment, etc.) and for many people diet and exercise alone are not enough to combat the negative effects of obesity.
NUTRITION COUNSELING
and weight loss support groups
Nutritional counseling is a process that takes a personalized approach to defining your ideal dietary habits. Your counselor will sit down with you to assess your nutritional needs based on your personal health history, and will also talk to you about your personal tastes when it comes to various foods. This will allow the counselor to design a program that you can stick to and that helps to propel your weight loss. We go a step further and offer support groups to help you adjust to the change and achieve sustainable results. Free Houston area Support Group Sessions are offered to pre- and post- weight loss surgery patients every other month.
