South MS Surgical Weight Loss Center

South Mississippi Surgical Weight Loss Center features a comprehensive, multidisciplinary program administered by a highly trained and dedicated staff. Our team will guide you through the various steps involved in achieving your ideal weight, such as changing your exercise and nutritional habits. We pride ourselves on building and maintaining good relationships with each one of our patients and providing quality health care.

Our organization makes it a priority to maintain access to accommodating facilities that can fit the needs of all of our patients. We perform our bariatric surgery procedures at Singing River Hospital, honored as one of the top 100 hospitals in the country by Solucient, a leading Healthcare Firm. We have a dedicated OR team at Singing River as well as dedicated in-patient and out-patient services.

Dr. William Avara, III and Dr. Jason Payne, are leaders in their field who perform advanced laparoscopic bariatric surgery. These highly trained and experienced surgeons have performed well over 2,000 bariatric surgeries. Their attention to detail has allowed them to deliver excellent patient care and achieve a record of success.

South Mississippi Surgical Weight Loss Center has been named a Center of Excellence by the American Society for Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery. This highlights our facility as the only weight loss center on the Mississippi Gulf Coast to deliver exceptional patient care and maintain a long-term documented success with our patients.

People interested in our program should attend one of our free information sessions, which are designed to educate potential patients about the bariatric surgery process. Please visit our website for more information on how to register.

We look forward to helping you overcome obesity at our weight loss practice, as well as helping you maintain a healthier lifestyle!
