The Transformed Weight Loss Programs address all of these aspects with a medically endorsed team of healthcare professionals. Transformed has helped hundreds of people achieve a healthier body weight. We offer programs for general weight loss clients as well as individuals who have had, are considering OR about to have BARIATRIC SURGERY and need care and support from a team of specialised clinicians to help them get the most benefit from their weight loss surgery. This program is now the required post-operative care follow up that all new Bariatric Surgery patients are required to participate in at the Tasmanian Anti-Obesity Surgery Centre and The Royal Hobart Hospital. The 12-month program incorporates a Multidisciplinary Team of clinicians who specialise in Bariatric Medicine. The patient will have, as an introduction to the program, a comprehensive medical assessment performed by a Nurse Practitioner to identify any medical concerns and considerations. From this review some medical indicators may be identified as contributing to their weight loss difficulties - if these are present, we will work in collaboration with yourself to assist in managing such problems i.e Thyroid Function, PCOS and Diabetes. We consider the role of the patients primary General Practitioner to be pivotal in comprehensively caring for the patient. To decrease fragmentation of care any escalation of treatment, or any issues identified during the course of the consultations will be communicated to the General Practice in the form of a letter, if non urgent, if urgent we will contact the practice by phone.
