Southwest Bariatric Surgery Group

The Southwest Bariatric Surgery Group provides obesity surgery for those who wish to undertake treatment privately in the Southwest of England.

Many medical studies have shown that once a person is severely obese, you can still derive some benefit from diet, behavioural modification or exercise programmes but they are rarely sufficient to achieve significant weight loss. Anti-obesity drugs may also be helpful but are not recommended for long term use. The only treatment that is proven to produce significant weight loss is surgery.

World-wide hundreds of thousands of patients have had successful weight loss surgery and there are numerous publications in the medical literature on its benefits. As well as enjoying the social and fitness benefits of being lighter, many patients find that they no longer need treatment for obesity-related diseases and their quality of life improves dramatically.

We hold clinics and perform surgery in Taunton, Truro and Bournemouth. Our team of experienced professionals is here to partner with you right through your weight loss journey - we want to help you achieve your weight loss and health improvement targets.

We are also unique in the UK in providing a comprehensive care package which includes your pre-operative assessment, your operation and life-time follow-up.
