The Tennessee Weight Loss & Surgery Center
If you’ve struggled with obesity most of your life…
…you know it is more than just a weight problem. It is a lifestyle problem. It is a self-esteem problem. Above all, it is a major health problem. In fact, clinically severe obesity—at least 100 pounds over ideal body weight—is classified as a serious disease.
The Tennessee Weight Loss and Surgery Center at the University of Tennessee Medical Center, Knoxville, TN, is here to provide a comprehensive approach to the bariatric surgery process, which may be covered by your insurance. Its multidisciplinary team of consultants made up of surgeons, dietitians, exercise specialists and administrative staff will partner with you to provide a weight-loss program that addresses your individual needs and helps you maintain your weight loss.
