When you struggle with weight issues, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by your weight loss options and dismayed by setbacks. At the Stanford Bariatric and Metabolic Interdisciplinary Clinic (BMI Clinic), we see you as a person with a complex disease that requires treatment and a person who deserves compassion and respect.

We offer both bariatric surgery and medical weight loss to provide the most comprehensive program to our patients. All of our weight loss experts are located in the same building, which makes it convenient for you to obtain the services you need. Whenever possible, we coordinate appointments with all of your team members so you only have to make one trip.
