The right clinician for obesity care depends on your needs. Care may include nutrition, activity, medication or surgery after assessment. If you are considering an operation, look for a surgeon with training and experience in metabolic and bariatric surgery and a follow-up team.

Ask about alternatives to surgery, risks, long-term care, dietitian support and psychological support when needed. Discuss hospital arrangements, postoperative contact and the costs of tests and follow-up. Do not rely only on before-and-after photographs or promises.

Compare available information in the [doctor directory](<https://clinicsjo.com/en/doctors>) and arrange an assessment. Choosing a well-known doctor does not make a particular procedure suitable for you, and no operation guarantees the same weight loss for every patient.
