Excellence

As an American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) Bariatric Surgery Center of Excellence, we have a proven track record of quality, safety and excellent care. In fact, to earn the Bariatric Surgery Center of Excellence, we have:         

  • Passed a rigorous site inspection
  • Partnered only with board-certified surgeons experienced in bariatric surgery
  • Demonstrated a track record of safe, effective care
  • Shown a commitment to utilize the most current, effective treatments 

Teamwork

The team of skilled surgeons on our medical staff, along with nurses, psychologists, a bariatrician, nutritionists, and physical and occupational therapists all work together to help you discover a healthier life by achieving your weight loss goals. Our bariatric program coordinator and insurance coordinator also work to make sure that other details – such as family, financial, and communication issues – go smoothly. 

Support

We realize that much of your weight loss success hinges on how well we support you after your surgery. Our monthly support group offers practical, emotional, and nutritional encouragement along your journey. 

Recognition and Awards

In addition to earning the ASMBS Bariatric Surgery Center of Excellence distinction, Baylor Plano has received many quality awards, including the following:
