But at, one thing was clear: GLP-1s aren’t the enemy — they’re expanding what’s possible for patients.
From using them before surgery, after surgery, or alongside surgery, the goal is simple: more tools, better outcomes, and more lives changed.
This isn’t the end of obesity treatment.
It’s the beginning of a new era.
If you’re struggling with weight and wondering what options are right for you, schedule a consultation and let’s talk about a plan built for YOU.

Right after surgery, your stomach has very little space and even swallowing extra air can leave you feeling bloated, full, and struggling to get in the hydration and protein your body actually needs.
The good news? There’s no evidence that straws stretch your pouch or cause weight gain long term.
Recovery first. Myths second.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the TREO Foundation’s The Walk – Georgetown 2026. From our patients and community members to our sponsors, Kentucky Bariatric Institute team, and Centerpoint Health staff, your support made this event truly special.

We are grateful for every step taken and every contribution made in support of obesity awareness, education and patient support. Thank you for helping make this event such a success.

The reality is this: GLP-1 medications are changing obesity treatment in incredible ways. But when researchers compare outcomes head-to-head, bariatric surgery still shows a larger impact on diseases like type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular risk.
This isn’t about choosing sides. It’s about making sure patients get the right treatment for the right situation based on real data, not just the loudest marketing.
What are your thoughts?
