St. Luke's Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Clinic

Lost 188 pounds
Gained: Freedom from Disease

Rylee Schweizer was diagnosed with diabetes at the age of 25. Two years later she was at the beginning stages of kidney and liver failure. Her doctor told her she had two choices: bariatric surgery or kidney dialysis. She chose the surgery.

Today Rylee is 30 years old, 188 pounds lighter, and free of disease. She has more strength, flexibility, and energy. She has a new mindset, a new lifestyle, and a new sense of hope and direction.

Rylee is supported by the experienced physicians and bariatrics team at St. Luke’s Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Clinic. Our proven track record of favorable outcomes for weight loss surgery, and our comprehensive commitment to high quality bariatric care are why we are an American Society for Bariatric Surgery Center of Excellence.
