Severe obesity is a chronic, metabolic condition affecting nearly 16 million Americans. Obesity is caused by a number of factors,
but is most closely linked to genetics. Sufferers are at least 100 pounds over their ideal weight, putting them at high risk for
stroke, heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure and other weight-related conditions.
Rarely can individuals lose weight or sustain weight loss without long-term, medical treatment. This is where the bariatric experts
at Aurora Health Care can help. If you have exhausted other weight loss options and are dedicated to changing your lifestyle, bariatric
surgery may be a viable option for you.
