Surgical Weight Loss and Psychological Screening – 3rd Revision

$99.00

Criteria for weight loss surgery include mental, emotional well-being. It is common for people who are candidates for bariatric surgery to also struggle with psychological disorders, especially anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and eating disorders.

An evaluation helps identify any potential mental health risks so you aren’t caught by surprise if psychological symptoms occur after surgery.

The psychological evaluation can help identify your strengths, such as a strong motivation to exercise as your weight is coming off, a complete understanding of the effects of surgery or a supportive marital relationship. It can also help find areas where you might need support after surgery, such as depression or mood swings, lack of family support or triggers for past emotional eating.
