A Healthy Body and Mind with Dr. Feiz

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 30, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- As patients of Dr. Feiz and Associates, or those who have seen Dr. Michael Feiz discuss gastric sleeve on Doctors TV program are well aware, weight loss surgery can change your life. However, one recent study has found that some obesity patients who suffer from depression don't necessarily feel better emotionally after treatment. That's why, once you make the choice to improve your health and the quality of your life through bariatric surgery, it's so important to avoid facilities that make wild, untrue claims about what to expect from treatment. Instead, you'd benefit from getting in touch with a proven bariatric surgery expert like Dr. Feiz.

The Health Site reports that a new study has found that, while many obese individuals feel better after undergoing bariatric surgery – a small number do not. At the Yale University School of Medicine, researchers Valentina Ivezaj and Carlos Grilo found that most people who undergo bariatric surgery feel much better after treatment. However, about 3.7% of patients reported their feelings of depression did not subside after surgery.

The benefits of bariatric surgery are well documented – after all, it has been found that bariatric surgery for those suffering from obesity can reduce the risk of diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea, cardiovascular disease, arthritis, and various other ailments. But Dr. Feiz understands that unfortunately, depression and other mental health issues are very real, and these issues can severely detract from one's enjoyment of life – even while experiencing the remarkable benefits of weight loss surgery. That's why the acclaimed surgeon makes a point of discussing precisely what each patient can expect for their particular  weight loss experience.
