A Collaborative Team to Help You Get Healthier
Your team includes surgeons, gastroenterologists, endocrinologists (hormone specialists), registered dietitians, nurses, psychologists, and surgical and bariatric coordinators with the compassion and experience to provide the care you need to get healthy and support your weight loss goals.
If you need to see another specialist to meet the requirements for bariatric surgery, NewYork-Presbyterian Hudson Valley also offers support in the following areas:
- Heart care (cardiology)
- Respiratory care (pulmonology)
- Sleep studies
- Nutritionists
- Psychiatrists
- Support to quit smoking. Our surgeons do not perform bariatric surgery on current smokers. If you smoke, we can connect you with the resources you need to quit.
