#275 Bariatric Surgery for the Internist with Dr. Vivian Sanchez

What if we told you there was a powerful tool that could help promote significant weight loss, correct uncontrolled diabetes, improve quality of life, and even improve patient mortality? What if we told you it was offered less than 1% of the time to patients who qualify for it? Listen as our esteemed guest Dr. Vivan Sanchez (Boston University) talks us through the patient selection, preoperative workup, and postoperative considerations for bariatric surgery, and how it might benefit your patients.
