Weight Loss (Bariatric) Surgery 

Since 2020, the Metabolic and Bariatric Center at BayCare Winter Haven Hospital has helped patients achieve long‑term weight loss through safe, high-quality surgical care. Treatment plans are tailored to each patient’s needs. After surgery, patients recover in a dedicated area that's designed to support comfort and healing. 

Our Comprehensive Program  

Weight loss care is delivered through a team-based approach focused on long-term success. From appointments to ongoing support, the care team works together to provide coordinated care.
