Hospitals

Where will the surgery take place?

Our patients have their laparoscopic weight loss surgical procedures either at Melrose-Wakefield Hospital in Melrose or at Tufts Medical Center in Boston, Massachusetts.

Tufts Medical Center has long been designated by the American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery as Bariatric Surgical Center of Excellence.MelroseWakewfield Hospital is currently undergoing the center of excellence qualification process. The level of care of weight loss surgery patients is outstanding at both hospitals. The quality of nursing care at MelroseWakefield Hospital previously achieved Magnet® recognition from the American Nurses Credentialling Center (ANCC). Magnet Recognition is an organizational credential awarded to exceptional health care organizations that meet ANCC standards for quality patient care, nursing excellence, and innovations in professional nursing practice. Valued by consumers, Magnet designation is the ultimate distinction for high quality nursing and a leading source of nursing best practices worldwide. Only eight hospitals in the state, and less than 7 percent of hospitals in the United States, have Magnet recognition.

The decision of where a patient's surgery will take place will depend on the patient's insurance policy and/or personal preferences. We maximally respect anyone's wish about the preferred location of the surgery.
