Helping You Achieve a Healthy Weight

Half of American adults say they want to lose weight, according to a 2015 Nielson study. But as research has shown, it can be very difficult to lose weight and keep it off on your own.

In the Sutter Health network, we offer a range of options to help you reach your weight loss goals, from classes and medically supervised programs to a comprehensive range of bariatric surgery procedures.

Sutter Health network weight loss and bariatric surgery programs have earned national honors and accreditations including:

  • Gold Standard awards for excellence in performance and patient care from HMR (Health Management Resources) weight management program.
  • Seven Comprehensive Center hospitals, designated by the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS).

Obesity Research

Sutter Health Obesity Research
More than a third of Americans are obese, which puts them at risk for heart disease, stroke, diabetes and some cancers. Obesity is also a cause of rising health costs in the U.S. Obesity means a person has 20 percent more body fat than what is healthy — a body mass index of 30 or more. Research into prevention and treatment is critical to improving the health of the nation.
