Surgical Weight Loss A true solution
The goal of weight loss surgery is to help you live better, healthier, and longer. We perform our weight loss procedures using Advanced Laparoscopic Surgery (ALS,) which we believe to be the safest and most effective surgical method. ALS is just another component of our mission to offer the most advanced, patient-focused bariatric surgery program in Arkansas..
Highlighted Procedures

Gastric sleeve surgery can dramatically improve your health and quality of life, triggering the loss of 60 to 70 percent of the unwanted pounds within a year, along with enhancing your overall health.
