What Is Bariatric Surgery in Coconut Creek, FL?

Bariatric surgery makes the stomach smaller so you feel full on far less food, which changes how much you eat day to day. For patients in Coconut Creek, it means one surgeon who performs every major option and can compare them for your health history and goals. Coconut Creek sits in northern Broward County, and your care runs through our South Miami office.

Most requested

Gastric Sleeve

Dr. K removes most of the stomach laparoscopically and leaves a narrow sleeve. Smaller portions satisfy you sooner, and the package price includes your first year of follow-ups.

About gastric sleeve
Lower BMI

Low BMI Mini Sleeve

A sleeve designed for patients with a lower BMI who want a surgical option before weight-related conditions build up.

About the Mini Sleeve
Surgical

Gastric Bypass

A small stomach pouch is connected to a lower part of the small intestine, which limits both how much you eat and how much is absorbed.

Nonsurgical

Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty

ESG reshapes the stomach from the inside with an endoscope and internal sutures, so there are no external incisions.

Who Bariatric Surgery Is For

Candidacy is a medical decision Dr. K makes with you after reviewing your weight history, your health and what you have already tried. It is never a single number on a chart.

Not ready for surgery? Our medical weight loss plans and the nonsurgical options above are a starting point, and they can lead to surgery later if you need it.

  • You have tried structured diets or programs, and the weight keeps coming back.
  • Your weight is affecting your health, such as blood sugar, blood pressure, sleep or your joints.
  • You want a long-term plan with a surgeon who follows you after the procedure.
  • You have a lower BMI and want to act before weight-related conditions develop.
  • You are a teen between 14 and 17, and your family wants a medically supervised path.
  • You are taking GLP-1 injections and want to compare them with a surgical option.

Questions

FAQ About Bariatric Surgery in Coconut Creek, FL

How do I qualify for bariatric surgery in Coconut Creek, FL?

Dr. K decides candidacy with you at your consultation, looking at your weight history, weight-related health conditions and what you have already tried. Because we also offer a Low BMI Mini Sleeve, a teen sleeve for ages 14 to 17 and nonsurgical options such as ESG and the ORBERA balloon, patients outside a standard surgical profile still have choices to discuss.

Do I need to travel to South Miami for every step?

No. Required tests and medical clearances can be done at our clinic or at an outside facility closer to Coconut Creek, and an upper endoscopy (EGD) done within the last 5 months is accepted. Surgery and your follow-up visits take place with our team.

Is weight loss surgery worth it?

That depends on your health goals, and it is the main question Dr. K works through with you. Patients in our reviews describe it as a decision they would make again, and we pair surgery with diet plans and first-year follow-ups so you are not doing the work alone.

Is bariatric surgery still done now that GLP-1 injections exist?

Yes. Dr. K performs gastric sleeve, gastric bypass and ESG and also manages medical weight loss with injections, so you get a comparison of both paths from one surgeon. If you move from injections to surgery, they are stopped at least 2 weeks before your procedure.

How soon can I return to work after gastric sleeve surgery?

Most patients return to work 4 to 7 days after the procedure. Lifting anything over 20 pounds is off limits during early recovery, and Dr. K gives you the exact timeline at your follow-up visits.

What does the $14,000 gastric sleeve package include?

The package covers your hospital stay, the surgeon's fee, all hospital-related fees and your follow-up appointments for the first year after surgery. Financing through Cherry is available, including 24 months at 0% interest and monthly payments as low as $320.
