The award-winning program, recognized with a Blue Distinction Center + for Bariatric Surgery by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina, is staffed by an interdisciplinary team who provide quality education and support, before and after surgery.
The program offers Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass and Sleeve Gastrectomy surgical approaches to significant weight loss and maintenance for those suffering from morbid obesity.
At FirstHealth, we believe it's important to provide safe & effective care. The Department of Surgery tracks many performance measures and compares them to the national data. At the following links, you can view some of these measures.
