​Obesity has become an epidemic of massive proportions in our society. Bariatric surgery has become more mainstream and readily accessible to the general population as a solution to this problem for the morbidly obese. As the numbers of these patients increase, the likelihood that they will present to an urgent care center becomes higher. The urgent care practitioner needs to be familiar with the “after” anatomy of these patients, the physiologic changes that occur, and the acute and chronic complications of bariatric surgery. Join Dr. Davidoff as she reviews the anatomy and physiology of bariatric surgery and discusses those acute complications that may present to your urgent care center. Learn about the complications of massive, rapid weight loss and how to address the urgent concerns of these patients.
