Meet DayOne Health
Today, DayOne Health is proud to have delivered some of the best and most consistent surgical outcomes in the country. Our patients are achieving amazing, lasting weight-loss results. We believe that our patients' success is a responsibility we share, which is why our comprehensive program is structured to go beyond just the lap-band surgery to include the medical, nutritional and emotional support and guidance that will help ensure you reach your goal.
Our Mission: Safety. Support. Success.
DayOne Health's mission is to help our patients free themselves from obesity, along with its physical and emotional side effects, for the rest of their lives. We believe that the lap-band is the safest surgical weight loss option currently available, offering lasting results without the significant risks and mortality rates associated with other types of obesity surgery. In addition to placing our patients' health and safety first, we are committed to providing a friendly and compassionate environment where every patient feels empowered to change their lives for the better. We only succeed when our patients do.
To help you succeed, we provide you with ongoing support. In order to better serve those who seek our help, we have developed a full comprehensive weight loss program directed at pre- and post-surgical education of our patients. Once you chose DayOne Health to fight your extra pounds, your weight loss will become a team effort. We will always be here to answer any of your questions and concerns regarding your new lap-band lifestyle. We understand the struggles and challenges you face, and that is why you can be confident that sharing your weight loss journey with us is the right choice.
Chicago Weight Loss: Experienced Doctors & Best Results
In addition to offering a comprehensive program and state-of-the-art medical facilities, DayOne Health has some of the most experienced surgeons in the world – and their successful patient results show it. While the lap-band procedure has been performed extensively around the world, it has only been available in the U.S. for the last decade. The FDA approved the procedure in 2001 and three years later, DayOne's published patient outcomes exceeded even the FDA trial results. Not only do our surgeons have impressive documented results, but they have performed the lap-band procedure more than almost any other surgeon in the country. Because of their operative experience and proven record, they have helped educate and train many other bariatric surgeons.
Why Get Started Now?
There are many benefits to the lap-band weight loss procedure. First of all, there is the decreased risk of cardiovascular and orthopedic diseases associated with healthy weight. Formerly obese patients also report increased energy and ability to perform the tasks associated with an active lifestyle. Also, because they generally suffer from fewer medical disorders and therefore have fewer health care expenses, people within a medically recommended weight range for their height often save money. The better question might be: Why NOT get started now?
