The most important part of your decision regarding your bariatric procedure should be choosing a certified surgeon, who operates in a surgical unit that works with the highest quality standards. This is about your health and your life, so your main priority should be to find a place that offers safety and excellent patient care.
The only way you can truly limit your risk is if you trust your surgery to a certified center, and your long-term success will depend on the support and follow-up program they provide. If during your research you find a surgical option with a price that seems too good to be true, it probably is.
When analyzing costs and options, please keep in mind that quality and safety have a price, and even though LIMARP is a competitive clinic, we spare no expense when it comes to the safety of our patients.
