Your journey starts here.
Geary Community Hospital was the first hospital in Kansas to offer bariatric surgery for the treatment of morbid obesity. We have performed over 800 surgeries and continue to offer our expertise to help make this life-changing decision a successful one.
 | As a busy mom of 8 children 5 years ago, to say that I was miserable was a huge understatement! I was a therapeutic foster parent to five children and had three daughters of my own. I could barley keep up. Everything in my life suffered due to my obesity. I had difficulty moving, never climbed the stairs, had joint pain, was borderline diabetic and required an inhaler. Food was definately my comfort and the easiest thing in my life was eating and consuming two liters of soda every single day!
Five years out of surgery, I have to say that this was the single best thing I have ever done for myself! ... At my largest I weighed 325lbs and lost a total of 175lbs.
I am ecstatic to be alive, healthy and so very thankful for Dr. Bollman and staff as well as the GCH staff for this life changing and saving opportunity!

Morbid obesity is not a cosmetic problem. Medical science has clearly established that it is a critical health issue with statistics demonstrating that life expectancies are dramatically shorter for people who are severely overweight. Health conditions related to obesity can be deadly, and controlling severe obesity can be a matter of life or death.
IWLS is committed to the care of severely obese patients who have struggled to lose weight and keep it off through conventional methods. Our experienced surgeons offer three different surgical options, including the LAP-BAND®, open Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, and laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.
