Weight Loss Surgery with Dr. Thomas Streeter
My favorite day in the office is when I have three or four one-year follow up patients. These are people who have lost on average probably about 100 pounds. You frequently don’t recognize them and they are almost uniformly delighted. You constantly hear; this is the best thing I ever did. Our patients live longer because they had the surgery. - Dr. Thomas Streeter

With care and compassion, they are dedicated to providing ongoing high-quality education and support.
