Welcome to the Center for Obesity Surgery and Treatment, where our staff is committed to supporting patients and guiding them through this life-altering endeavor.

The Center was established by the Surgical Group of Gainesville specifically to help those suffering from serious problems due to being overweight. Weight loss surgeries have been performed at North Florida Regional Medical Center for more than 25 years, contributing to the experience of our own professional staff and our consulting physicians in anesthesia, radiology and other medical disciplines. The Center for Obesity Surgery and Treatment has been accredited by the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery as a Bariatric Surgery Center of Excellence.
