Specially Trained for Weight Loss Success.
“The care at the hospital was absolutely wonderful. My every need was met. The nurses looked after me as if I was part of their family. Actually, that is exactly how I felt during my time there–as if we were one big family.” – Rozanne K.
The Barix Team Approach to Bariatric Care
Unlike other hospitals that began offering bariatric surgery as one of their surgical service lines, because a general surgeon who practiced at the hospital decided to begin performing bariatric surgery, Barix Clinics spent years developing its comprehensive care program and selecting and training the entire team of people needed to provide the best bariatric care possible. The bariatric surgeons at Barix Clinics are specialists who are dedicated to bariatric surgery. The Barix Quality program is based upon having internal medicine physicians who complete required testing on every bariatric patient prior to surgery, to assure that every patient meets Barix’s stringent medical clearance requirements. These internists have developed special diagnostic and post-surgical assessment skills which serve as a major benefit in the care of bariatric patients. In addition to developing the unique surgeon training program, Barix focuses on all the other physicians, nurses, technicians, nutritionists and staff required to deliver a level of service to the bariatric patient that no other healthcare organization has ever come close to providing. This team approach recognizes that every member of the team must not only have superior clinical skills but must be committed to superior outcomes and service excellence.
Barix Cares as if You were Family
At Barix Clinics every patient is cared for as if they were a member of the family. Unfortunately in most hospitals, especially the larger medical centers, patients are treated as if they were just numbers, in a very impersonal, clinically detached manner. Barix Clinics was founded upon the belief that every patient should be treated as more than a VIP, but as if they were a part of the family. In fact, over the last 30 years, several patients reunions have been held so that patients can share with Barix staff their success in losing weight and starting a new life. Many Barix staff members are former bariatric patients and they understand your concerns prior to surgery and also the changes that occur after surgery.
For a confidence-inspiring patient experience before, during, and long after bariatric surgery, no one delivers like Barix. And your personal army of dedicated people can’t wait to prove it to you. Contact us any time to set up a consultation with one of the bariatric surgeons.
