Many bariatric centers have a full program utilizing a multidisciplinary team of professionals that assist patients through the surgical process or the medical weight loss program. Aftercare for patients, however, is often limited to weight checks, blood monitoring, and medical exams. Patients want and need assistance in maintaining weight loss. Research is clear that patients do better when they are involved in a program where there are avenues in place for accountability. Once a person leaves a program, the odds of their regaining weight are dramatically increased.

BariAftercare has been developed by, is run by, and maintained by Dr. Stapleton and her staff. BariAftercare is a result of Dr. Stapleton’s two decades of experience with thousands of bariatric patients whose struggles with weight loss, weight regain, and food addiction have been observed, both before and after their weight loss (whether through surgical or medical programs).

BariAftercare is designed to address the behavioral components and emotional issues associated with patients continued struggles with their weight, with body image and with an obsession on a “diet mentality” after significant weight loss. For many bariatric patients, these issues remain problematic after weight loss. In spite of having been educated by a team of bariatric professionals throughout the weight loss process about the disease of obesity, the biological aspects of weight loss and regain, and the behavior modification tools necessary to lose weight and then to remain at a healthy weight, maintaining weight loss is difficult for many.
