LOS ANGELES, May 15, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- The medical team at Beverly Hills Physicians understands that going through a surgery only to find disappointing results can be extremely difficult, whatever the cause of the surgery's failure. Regardless, they are ready with such highly effective solutions as lap band revision to gastric sleeve operations, as well as careful post-operative follow-up. Indeed, the board certified bariatric specialists of Beverly Hills Physicians are masters of revision weight loss surgery who have helped many patients to achieve their weight loss goals after a disappointing initial procedure. The danger, however, is that some patients who have gone to other health care providers may take poor results as a sign of a personal failure and lose hope for recovery from their obesity. That is, of course, a very sad outcome and entirely unnecessary given BHP's consistently outstanding track record of gastric sleeve surgery and other revisions.

Of course, where people obtain bariatric surgery does make a tremendous difference. Beverly Hills Physicians boasts many of the most skilled and respected bariatric practitioners in California, but that's only the beginning of the BHP difference. The medical group is known for its commitment to careful monitoring of a patient's post-operative progress regarding weight loss and other matters. When problems arise, solutions are always available.

The fact of the matter is that there's more to the success of a weight loss surgery than the actual physical changes it creates. Weight loss surgery is a highly effective tool for making it easier to lose large amounts of weight by reducing the appetite, but it is not a magic bullet against obesity. In addition to detailed medical follow-up from all of its doctors, BHP is proud to offer the services of counselors and nutritionists who specialize in helping recent bariatric patients learn to adjust to their new bodies and lifestyles and to guide them through difficult periods. When necessary, however, doctors may counsel patients who are having ongoing trouble to see if a revision procedure is called for.

In fact, the medical group's entire staff is known for their compassion and understanding and can help with every aspect of a patient's treatment. That even includes assistance with insurance paperwork and other important details. In cases where there may be financial issues from procedures not covered by insurance, our outstanding consultants are able to create payment plans that can fit within the most modest budget. Beverly Hills Physicians knows that overcoming obesity is one of the hardest things anyone ever has to do and issues such as finances and paperwork should never stand in the way of a healthier, happier life.

Whether you've had a weight loss surgery from elsewhere that has not worked out, or if you are considering your first bariatric surgery, Beverly Hills Physicians is here to help.
