Bariatric surgery (or weight loss surgery) includes a variety of procedures performed on people who are obese. Long-term weight loss through Standard of Care procedures (Roux en Y Bypass, Sleeve Gastrectomy, and Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch) is largely achieved by altering gut hormone levels that are responsible for hunger and satiety, thereby leading to a new hormonal weight set point. A doctor who specializes in this type of surgery is known as a bariatric surgeon.
Named “Best Bariatric Surgeon” in Atlanta, Georgia in 2020, Dr. Aryaie has done extensive research, has published multiple publications, and has been featured during national presentations regarding bariatrics and minimally invasive surgery. In addition, he has been featured on news channels and online for his area of expertise in order to educate the public.
A husband and father to two beautiful twin girls, he enjoys reading, traveling, spending time with his family, and working out in his free time.
