The disease obesity affects 42% of American adults. Severe cases of obesity
are measured by an individual’s body weight. If a person is 100
pounds or more above their ideal body weight, the patient is considered
obese. At Valley Health, our hospitals are dedicated to helping people
who struggle with excess weight and related health problems take back
control of their lives. Our distinctive program not only guides patients
through the process, but also gives them the tools to succeed in keeping
the weight off! This includes surgery, medical management, help from dietitians,
medications, and more.
Fighting obesity isn’t just about body image—it’s about
health as well. Common health conditions associated with obesity include
type 2 diabetes, infertility, high blood pressure, depression, and sleep
apnea. Many need medical help in order to safely lose weight and keep
the weight off. Our program is committed to the health and wellness of
all of our patients. You won’t be alone in your fight against obesity!
We stick with our patients every step of the way to help achieve their goals.
