Plano, TX, Jan. 09, 2017 – With obesity at epidemic levels in the United States and elsewhere, bariatric surgery has become a popular option for addressing the concern. Offering an effective way to help people shed pounds and keep them off, these procedures can help those who face serious health risks while giving them a whole new lease on life. Practitioners in the field, however, warn that the weight loss journey doesn’t end in the operating room; it merely begins there.

“Over the years, the Nicholson Clinic has performed thousands of weight loss procedures ranging from gastric bypasses to Lap-Bands and everything in between,” says Dr. Nick Nicholson, founder and lead surgeon at the Nicholson Clinic for Weight Loss Surgery. “The success stories have been tremendous, but they are not ours alone to share. Our patients who have enjoyed the greatest amount of success are those who have made a commitment to change and a commitment to follow through with critical aftercare.”

Support after surgery is a facet of care the Nicholson Clinic strongly recommends for every patient. With that in mind, the clinic provides an extensive lineup of services meant to help people before and after surgery. From support groups to dietary guidance, counseling and fitness advice, the clinic’s staff remains active in patients’ lives long after surgery is performed.

“Our greatest success stories all have a common theme,” says Dr. Nicholson. “They come from patients who remain committed to not only meeting their weight-loss goals after surgery, but also to taking advantage of the support provided so they can maintain their success years down the road.”

The Nicholson Clinic specializes in helping patients address their weight loss concerns while providing support along the way. To learn more about the Nicholson Clinic, its locations and the weight loss services it provides, visit it online at www.nicholsonclinic.com.
