About Us
Birmingham Bariatric Care is a HIPAA complaint Telehealth-based platform based in Birmingham, Alabama. You may think the term bariatrics only has to do with surgery, but that is incorrect. Bariatrics is the medical study, prevention, and treatment of obesity and its related conditions. The study of bariatrics focuses on managing obesity through specialized medicine, lifestyle changes, or surgery, designed to aid in weight loss. The term originates from the Greek words for weight (baros) and treatment (iatrikos).
At Birmingham Bariatric Care, we believe that obesity treatment means more than just weight loss- it's restoring health, confidence, and quality of life. We are founded on the belief that every individual deserves compassionate, comprehensive care that addresses the root causes of obesity, not just the symptoms.
Our approach to weight loss care, combines evidence-based medical treatments with nutritional guidance, behavioral therapy, physical wellness, and emotional support. Whether you’re considering weight loss surgery, exploring non-surgical options, or simply seeking weight loss guidance on your journey to better health, we tailor each care plan to meet your unique needs.
Our goal is to help combat obesity, improve health outcomes, and enhance quality of life by providing the highest quality care. We strive to support our patients through partnership, focusing on empowering individuals to make sustainable lifestyle changes and, in turn, achieve their health goals.
