Patina L. Warinner, RD

Our fellowship-trained and experienced surgeons are dedicated to the field of bariatric surgery, using advanced laparoscopic, minimally-invasive surgery techniques. We care for the whole person, working closely with you as we guide you to better health with medical expertise and emotional understanding. Through our surgeon-led, comprehensive, multidisciplinary team approach, your weight loss surgery offers a head start toward both a healthy weight and improved overall health.

We have partnered with MDVIP, a national network of primary care physicians who focus on wellness and prevention. MDVIP-affiliated primary care physicians have more time to get to know you beyond your symptoms, in a relaxed, unrushed setting. Members enjoy conveniences like same- or next-day appointments with minimal wait times and the ability to contact their doctor after hours and on weekends for more urgent needs. The cornerstone of MDVIP-affiliated practices is the annual MDVIP Wellness Program, comprised of advanced diagnostic tests shown to help better detect certain risk factors earlier. The program includes a heart disease screening developed with Cleveland HeartLab, as well as assessments for diabetes, bone and respiratory health, fitness, sleep, emotional well-being and more. The results of the annual screenings and tests can help provide a more in-depth picture of your health and aid in designing an action plan to help improve your health now and for the future.
