Weight Management Program NYU Langone Hospital—Long Island

The Weight Management Program at NYU Langone Hospital—Long Island offers medical and surgical options to people who need assistance and guidance with reaching and maintaining a healthy weight.

Being overweight and having obesity are serious medical conditions that can impact your health. Excess weight can increase the risk of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, osteoarthritis, sleep apnea, stroke, and certain cancers. It can even shorten your lifespan. Losing weight and keeping it off are not always easy. For some people, medication plans created by our endocrinologists and other providers, medically supervised nutrition counseling, or surgery are the best ways to achieve long-lasting results that can improve your health and wellbeing.

The Weight Management Program at NYU Langone Hospital—Long Island is led by renowned medical professionals who are dedicated to providing compassionate and comprehensive care to patients interested in weight loss surgery.

We specialize in helping people lose excess body weight through minimally invasive and robotic bariatric surgery techniques that are performed using small incisions and are done with the assistance of the da Vinci Surgical System. Surgical treatment options include gastric bypass surgery, sleeve gastrectomy, and revisional bariatric surgery.

We have a proven track record and support patients every step of the way: our dedicated nurses, nurse practitioners, nutritionists, and physician assistants care for patients throughout the process. And we offer regular nutritional counseling and support groups to help you maintain behavior changes for long-term success.

Bariatric surgery requires lifelong lifestyle modification and support. Our mission is to deliver safe and effective surgical solutions to help patients achieve their weight loss goals and improve their quality of life and overall health. We look forward to joining you on the journey toward a healthier, more active life.
