Excellence in Weight Loss Services

The Banner Estrella Weight Loss Center offers a variety of weight loss services for adults who are somewhat overweight to obese.

Our team, including doctors, nurse practitioners, dietitians, exercise physiologists and psychologists, will help you determine what kind of surgery would be best for you, as well as help you to:

  • Understand and deal with a changing self-image and emotional changes that frequently follow this type of surgery.
  • Learn what, when and how to eat.
  • Develop an exercise plan that you can live with.
  • Provide clinical support to you and assist in answering your questions and concerns.

Our goal is to help you lose weight and keep it off, that is why we also provide lifelong support for our patients through various support groups that patients are welcome to attend before and after surgery.
