Obesity has become an epidemic in our society. Many have tried programs such as Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig and NutraSystem. However, for some that is not enough and they decide to go for gastric bypass surgery. Many have found that after the surgery, doctors are giving them differing post-op instructions. This can make a patient feel a bit like a guinea pig as doctors test out a variety of treatments to help them maintain their body’s nutrients. But here is the truth:

1. Bariatric surgeons are experts at surgery. Some may be knowledgeable about nutrition and others may not.

2. Most primary care physicians are not well versed in bariatric surgery or nutrition.
