Dr. Gregory Barnes chose bariatric surgery as his specialty after witnessing the incredible difference weight loss surgery made in the lives of his patients. “For many patients, their diabetes, high blood pressure and cholesterol and sleep apnea disappears after surgery and they lose their weight,” he says. “For some, the surgery literally saves their lives. I enjoy being a part of them becoming healthy for life. I truly care about my patients success.”
Dr. Barnes specializes in Revision surgery for intractable heartburn, weight regain and complications, Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and Laparoscopic RNY gastric bypass. He takes a multidisciplinary approach to surgery, providing nutritional and access to psychological counseling and extensive post-operative follow up care with a focus on maximizing weight loss and long term success. He views the surgical weight-loss process as a team effort between patient and physician and believes education, communication, and commitment offer the best chance for long term success.
Dr. Barnes is a Texas native and graduated summa cum laude from UTA, graduated from Baylor College of Medicine and completed his residency at the Western Pennsylvania Hospital-Temple University Medical School, Western Clinical Campus.
