• The BLIS Surgeon

In order to qualify to become a 'BLIS Surgeon,' physicians must demonstrate a high degree of education, training, experience and committment to bariatric surgery. Each BLIS Surgeon is a 'Center of Excellence' eligible bariatric surgeon with a proven record of successful bariatric surgical outcomes and part of a comprehensive bariatric program.  BLIS evaluates each surgeon on his or her surgical outcomes and complication rates using a unique and proprietary dataset exclusive to BLIS.

In order to become part of BLIS, the physician will have expressed a clear desire to provide the best care for their patients and will have customized their BLISCare plan to meet the specific needs of their patients.  The BLIS Surgeon has obtained BLISCare in order to help protect patients from the potentially devasting financial impact of a post-surgical complication.  They do so knowing no matter how good their outcomes have been that there is always the slight chance that a complication event could occur.  Knowing protection is in place should it be needed provides peace of mind for the BLIS Surgeon and their patient.
