Weight-Loss Surgery in Austin, TX

Obesity is a common condition for men and women in the US, and it is projected that by 2030, 44% of the US population will be considered obese. To be considered obese, one must have a body mass index (BMI) of ≥ 30%. Those who have a BMI ≥ 40% are considered morbidly obese.

There are a lot of health complications associated with obesity as it affects every organ system in the body. These conditions are called co-morbidities. Specifically, people who are obese (body mass index ≥ 30%) tend to have a higher chance of having Type 2 Diabetes, sleep apnea, high blood pressure and arthritis.
