Am I suitable for weight-loss surgery?

ScalesWeight-loss surgery is only an option for people who need to lose a significant amount of weight, and not for anyone who just wants to lose a few extra pounds.

In accordance with NICE (National Institute for Clinical Excellence) criteria, you can also only be considered for weight-loss surgery if:

  • Your BMI is greater than 40 or 35 with associated health problems such as diabetes, sleep apnoea or high blood pressure.
  • You are over 18 years old.
  • You have adequately tried all appropriate and available non-surgical measures of weight reduction such as dieting or drug therapy and have failed to maintain weight-loss.
  • You understand the need for long-term follow-ups after surgery.
