Bariatric Surgeon Perth

Providing a long-term commitment to achieving and sustaining weight loss in conjunction with a team of bariatric physicians, dieticians, psychologist, exercise physiologists, nurse and patient support group.

Proven Obesity Treatment

Four types of weight loss surgeries are performed at WA Laparoscopic and Obesity Surgery (WALOS), namely:

• Sleeve gastrectomy
• Mini gastric bypass
• SADI-S
• Gastric Bypass (RYGB)

Body contouring such as tummy tuck is also performed at WALOS once the desired weight loss has been achieved.

Your First Visit

You will meet Dr Dolan on your first visit to the clinic; he will carefully go through your medical history, explain your treatment options, and ensure you understand everything clearly.

If you are having one of our weight loss procedures, you will be closely supported by our whole team, not just around the time of your procedure, but for the months and years that follow. We will help you end the weight struggle- that’s our commitment to you.

Results

Our approach works – we constantly monitor our results and continually strive to improve our service to you. Through our integrated team approach we are helping our patients achieve some of the best results in the world.

The average patient typically loses 72% of excess weight following a sleeve gastrectomy procedure, 78% following a mini gastric bypass and 78% following SADI-S.

Complication Rates

Dr Dolan’s rate of acute complications is the lowest in Australia, despite having treated patients with high-risk medical conditions and extreme levels of obesity.

In fact, this rate has declined over time. We keep up to date records on all of our results as part of our quality control measures and clinical governance.
