All Female Specialist Health Care

Women's Weight Loss Surgery

A comprehensive approach.

We are an all-female specialist health care team delivering quality, targeted weight loss service for men and women seeking surgical weight management. We value our commitment to support, nurture and guide you through the process, comprehensively assessing and managing your needs now and throughout your journey in life.

Female and male clinicians differ in their practice of medicine in ways that might substantially affect patient outcomes. In a recent study published in the British Medical Journal and reproduced globally found that the patients of female surgeons tend to have lower death rates, fewer complications, and lower readmissions to the hospital after their procedure.

Furthermore, evidence indicates that there is a strong positive relationship between a healthcare team member’s communication skills and a patient’s capacity to follow through with recommendations, self-manage a chronic medical condition, and adopt new health behaviours.

We truly believe that our clinician’s ability to explain, listen and empathize can have a profound effect on your biological and functional health outcomes as well as your satisfaction and experience of care.

I am looking forward to meeting you and being on your journey to a healthier you.
