Bariatric Surgery Information

Thank you for your interest in Tailor Clinics Hamilton and Weight Loss Surgery Wellington. Tailor Clinics (formerly Weight Loss Surgery Hamilton) has been successfully performing bariatric surgery since 1996.

You will find here some basic information about bariatric (weight loss) surgery, but, if you haven’t done so already, we would like you to watch the informational videos as these provide a lot of useful information about the causes of weight issues, the procedures, and the limitations of surgery.

It is important to understand that surgery will only help you achieve your long-term goal if you are committed to losing weight. You will need to make lifestyle changes and attend regular follow up appointments after your surgery to maintain long-term weight loss.

Please find information here to guide you through the process you will follow to become a candidate for surgery, the surgical procedures performed by our practice and their respective prices.

Please read the information links thoroughly to ensure you fully understand our comprehensive pre- and post-op package. You will be expected to understand your surgical options prior to your initial consultations even if you are still deciding on which procedure you will have. There will be opportunities to ask questions at your initial consultation appointments.

We will need to have received your completed Patient Information Profile before your initial consultation appointments. Feel free to call us on 07 859 0185 if you have any questions or require additional information.
