After Surgery: What next?

At Aurora Bariatrics, we strongly recommend all bariatric patients undergo follow-up with the weight loss team, especially in the first 12 months then annual follow-up with your referring physician.   






Aurora Postoperative Program

After your surgery, your doctor will guide you towards a personalised Aftercare Plan.
