Multidisciplinary consultation

​

After screening, each individual patient is discussed at the multidisciplinary meeting. The following people will be present during this meeting:

​

- Surgeon

- Dietitian

- Endocrinologist

- Obesity coordinator

- Psychiatrist/Psychologist

​

The input of the General Practitioner during this multidisciplinary consultation is also of added value.

​

Comments are made from each discipline involved in the screening. Based on this, a treatment plan is proposed that is tailored to each individual patient. In doing so, opinions are formulated on the following questions:

​

- Surgical or non-surgical treatment?

- If surgical treatment is proposed:

* What type of surgery: gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy?

* Additional pre- or postoperative trajectory

* Need  of a postoperative physical rehabilitation process?
