Our Success Stories: Living Healthily & Happily
“Finding Dr. Srikanth was truly a blessing. Together, we decided on the best surgery for me and, with a strict high-protein, low-carb diet, I was able to lose 59 pounds in the six months prior to my sleeve gastrectomy surgery. I started my journey to great health with the Center for Weight Loss Surgery at 254 pounds and today I’m 167 pounds. Once I decided to take control of my health, I stuck to the plan with confidence and determination. This decision was the best one I have ever made."

Just What the Surgeon Ordered
“My heaviest was around 350 pounds. As a general surgeon myself, I was convinced that just taking the band out and converting it to a sleeve was not going to do anything for me in the long run. Based on my research, I strongly believed that the Duodenal Switch Single-Anastomosis DS (SIPS) was what was going to work for me. I have lost 162 pounds.* I don't have sleep apnea; I am not on BP meds. I am as healthy as someone could be.”

Lasting Treatment for Obesity Near Seattle
The team at the Center for Weight Loss Surgery is dedicated to helping our patients revitalize their lives and achieve their goals for healthy living. For patients with severe obesity weight loss surgery provides the best long-term solution. With locations in Federal Way and Kirkland, WA, our bariatric weight loss clinics provide exceptional personalized care along the entire obesity spectrum.
We realize that treating obesity in any individual depends on a variety of factors, and therefore customize our patient centric care accordingly. This starts with a comprehensive obesity assessment to determine the best option including obesity management through lifestyle and activity, weight loss medications and bariatric surgery with lifelong follow-up care.
For those with clinically severe obesity, weight loss surgery is recognized by the National Institutes of Health as being the only effective solution for long-term health. For these patients, conventional lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise are often insufficient to control the disease. In fact, related conditions such as diabetes, sleep apnea, heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and back pain may be best improved through weight loss surgery.
We perform all types of weight loss surgeries including sleeve gastrectomy, duodenal switch, duodenal switch with single anastomosis (SADI-S), gastric bypass, adjustable gastric band and revision surgery. Having a variety of surgical approaches enables us to customize treatments.
At our weight loss center we also specialize in cosmetic surgery after major weight loss such as lower body lift, tummy tuck, liposuction, arm lift, thigh lift and breast lift.
