About Us
The Nebraska Medicine Bariatrics Center is the region's most comprehensive weight-management program, offering surgical and medical weight-loss treatment options for obesity. We feel this is important, because not everyone’s genetic makeup allows them to lose weight similarly. Your weight-loss journey may require one – or a combination of treatment options – to successfully reach your weight-loss goals and keep the weight off. Our team understands and is dedicated to helping you achieve your goals.
Our program was designed and directed by physicians who are specialty trained in medical weight management and bariatric surgery. Our providers are supported by a multidisciplinary team of specialists, including advanced practice providers, nurse case managers, medical nutrition therapists and an insurance specialist, all trained in bariatric medicine.
Because we know that a successful transition to lifelong healthy living requires more than just losing weight, our team also includes medical nutritionists, an exercise specialist and a clinical psychologist – we are here to support your medical, physical and mental health throughout this process.
We offer classes and consultations on various topics, including healthy eating, portion identification, healthy coping, physical activity planning and the psychology of eating and weight loss. Our clinic also features size-appropriate accommodations, with a private entrance and convenient parking to ensure a comfortable patient experience.
Note: Weight loss results vary depending on the individual. No guarantee of weight loss is provided or implied.
