Hello Interloper!

Only fully trained and qualified surgeons should perform bariatric (weight loss) surgery. As this is such a specialised field, it is important to consider the experience of your surgeon, in terms of the number, type and method (keyhole or open) of procedures that he has performed.
For more information about practitioner training, qualifications and relevant medical organisations please view the information contained within the Legislation section of the Consulting Room.
