Bariatric Advantage® is committed to the patients, surgeons, support groups and other allied medical professionals who have dedicated their careers to helping improve the lives of the recovering obese patient. Our philosophy is simple, gather scientific data, provide this data to medical and nutritional experts for their review and analysis, then use this process to guide us in our development of unique nutritional supplements. Finally, we measure and publish the results of the patient experience scientifically through lab and other related tests.

There is no other national organization like it. Not only does it draw expertise from surgeons, nutritionists, nurses, psychologists, social workers, life coaches, and personal trainers; NAWLS offers critical information, support, and resources to WLS patients. I encourage others to support this incredibly valuable organization." -- Osvaldo Anez, MD, FACS
