Description

We are a surgical weight loss program located in the Kansas City area that provides surgical excellence within a compassionate atmosphere along with lifelong quality patient support and after care.

The Bariatric Center of Kansas City has been in practice since 2002, providing weight loss surgery care to thousands of patients in the metropolitan Kansas City and surrounding mid-west areas. Our program provides all the essential components as recommended by the National Institute of Health to achieve successful laparoscopic weight loss surgery. We provide patient education both individually and through public seminars, full preoperative evaluation of each patient's mental and physical health, coordination of care, assistance with insurance issues, and post-operative support groups in order to help ensure the safety and success of our patients.

Weight loss surgery is not cosmetic surgery, nor does it actually "remove" a patient's excess weight. It is a TOOL that assists in weight loss and weight maintenance for patients who are 100 or more pounds overweight and who have failed weight loss through traditional dietary and behavior modifications.

If you or someone you love is obese, you know how difficult life can be. Excess weight impacts your health, your self esteem and your relationships. People with obesity are at greater risk for serious health conditions such as high blood pressure, sleep apnea and diabetes.
When diet and exercise aren't working, it may seem like there is no hope. But at the Bariatric Center of Kansas City, we specialize in providing alternatives for the care and treatment of obesity and its related co-morbidities in the forms Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass and LapBand Gastric Banding Surgeries.

If you are considering the decision to undergo weight loss surgery, you'll want to educate yourself on these life-changing procedures. We are here to answer all of your questions and to determine if you are a candidate for surgery through our program.

KC Baratric far exceeded my expectations! Dr Hoehn was the best! Tanya my caseworker was the absolute best. She answered every email I sent her within ten to fifteen minutes and was always there if I needed an answer to my questions. Thank you all so much!!
As a nurse myself, KC Bariatric provided the absolute best care I could have hoped for. Throughout the entire process I was well cared for by an entire team; including a case manager, dietician, physical therapist, psychologist, and surgeon. When my surgery date arrived, that same fantastic care continued with all the nurses, CNAs, and the anesthesia staff. Would recommend to any friends or family in need of bariatric care.
Dr Cunningham is so great! I am so grateful for all you and your team have done! Thank you Deanna and everyone involved in my care! Highly recommend
I have to say from the very beginning of my journey to today 2nd day PO Dr Hoen and his entire team have been amazing. I would highly recommend him to anyone thinking about having this surgery.
I just had my surgery Nov 30 and this facility is by far the best of the best they go out of their way to make you feel like your the most important person from the time you start your appointment to get approval all the way up to ur night stay in the hospital I couldn't asked for a better Dr Hamilton and his staff for taken such great care of me now it's time to use the tool they provide me with Thank you for everything Laurie Nott
I’ve had a terrible time post surgery. I was prescribed a medication with pretty bad side affects. I had a telehealth visit March 23rd where we decided to switch medication I was told to wait a few days for authorization if denied I would be prescribed another medication that did not require authorization. I have now waited a month, calling daily I was able to reach the nurse who promised to call back within 10 minutes. The front desk takes sticky notes but I never receive a return call or anything sent to the pharmacy. Updating Dec 22 : I would not recommend this surgery center unless you’re fully prepared to deal with deception and miscommunication. My initial surgery was 11/19. FPost surgery I had a terrible time receiving post operative care while pregnant 11/20-4/21. Even with maternal fetal medicine, pcp and my local ER reaching out for support- it was not received until I was driven to the surgery center and demanded in person to receive help as our lives were deemed at risk. Following pregnancy I reaching out to NP Mary 1/22-10/22 for assistance and requested a revision as I was then gaining weight rapidly. My last visit with Mary I was placed with a new P that instructed me to just stop all medication for 30-60 days then we’d try other solutions. I followed every instruction, tried 4 different medications only to be told by one of the receptionists that I could’ve had a revision appointment with the doctor a long time ago if someone would’ve just sent me the appropriate revision request link. At this time we were racing against insurance that covered bariatric procedures my case manager Bambra did her best to fast track all required appointments to no avail. I’m highly disappointed and upset that if only the proper information was given to me at numerous appointments I could’ve received the help I needed.
I have had very prompt, professional and feel well cared for from everyone I have encountered with KC Bariatric.
Had my bypass done on March 23. 6 months of tests and hoops to jump through to get to that point. Everyone was so kind and informative. I'd definently suggest KC Bariatric to anyone thinking about getting bariatric surgery. My surgeon was wonderful. The nurses were wonderful.
The best decision I ever made! It still takes work, but it’s worth it! I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else! The Bariatric Center of Kansas City is the best, hands down! They’re there to support you every step of the way!!!
KC Bariatric was probably the best hospital experience I have ever had. Dr. Aregone & his staff was outstanding they answered all my questions, were so compassionate. My surgery went so well I had hardly any pain. It was truly a phenomenal experience. Highly highly recommend!!!!!!!!!!!!
