Visit Family Doctor

Make an appointment to talk to your family doctor about bariatric surgery and undergo the tests necessary for surgical evaluation. Discuss your medical history and the diets and exercise programs you’ve tried in the past and the reasons why you are pursuing weight loss surgery. Ask your doctor to write a letter of medical necessity to the surgeon of Synergy Bariatrics. This letter gives an overview of your medical history and attests to the appropriateness of surgery for you. Although insurance companies are very particular about the content and format of this letter, we would be happy to help your doctor with it.
