BayCare Metabolic and Bariatric Center at South Florida Baptist Hospital
Friday, 8am-12pm
By appointment only
The BayCare Metabolic and Bariatric Center at South Florida Baptist Hospital helps patients who are struggling with obesity find a long-term path to better health. Our team offers nonsurgical medical weight loss options – including nutrition therapy, lifestyle guidance and personalized support – as well as surgical treatments such as gastric sleeve and gastric bypass. Our team of experts, including a bariatric surgeon, dietitians, psychologists, pharmacists, physical therapists and a program manager, guide patients through every step of their journey. This includes presurgical preparation, one-on-one assistance with forms and clearances, and the coaching needed for a safe procedure, smooth recovery and sustained weight loss management. After surgery, we support patients with monthly support groups and easy access to our care team for questions, dietitian follow ups and pharmacy guidance.
Parking is available in the lot opposite the building. The center’s entrance is the door marked with the letter “C.” Upon arrival, ring the doorbell and someone will come to greet you.
