Frequently Asked Questions

Know This Before Your Weight Loss Surgery

We support you well before your surgery. Our frequently asked questions cover everything from whether you qualify for surgery to recovery and insurance details. They are designed to help you make informed choices and feel fully supported at every step of your journey.

Who qualifies for weight loss surgery in Houston?

You may qualify for surgery if your BMI is 40 or higher, or 35+ with health issues like Type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea, or high blood pressure. At our practice, we review your health to make sure surgery is the right option for you.

How long is the recovery time after minimally invasive bariatric surgery?

Most of our surgeries are done laparoscopically, usually needing just one night in the hospital. Many patients can go back to work and light activities within one to two weeks, depending on the nature of their job.

Does insurance cover weight loss surgery in Houston?

Yes, weight loss surgery can be paid for in different ways. Many insurance plans cover bariatric surgery if it’s medically needed. For those paying out-of-pocket, we offer flexible payment options to help manage costs, deductibles, or self-pay expenses.

What lifestyle changes should I start before my surgery date?

Preparing for surgery is important for safety. We advise quitting smoking 30 days before and after, avoiding alcohol a week prior, and following a high-protein, low-carb diet to shrink the liver. You must also stay well-hydrated while cutting out sugary drinks.

I have a Hiatal Hernia; can you fix that without bariatric surgery?

Yes. If a hernia is causing chest pain or severe reflux, Dr. Rizwan Chaudhry can correct it with a minimally invasive procedure to properly reposition the stomach.
