Weight & Blood Pressure Checks

In order to provide you with the best medical advice, your physician and/or bariatric surgeon need accurate, up to date weights and blood pressures in your medical record. You must either attend a Nurse Clinic, Doctor’s Visit, or Target Clinic to have these entered into your medical record.

For Bariatric Surgery Patients:

You will need a documented weight and blood pressure check at the following times:

  • Within 4 weeks prior to your initial telephone appointment with the bariatrician (this is required or your appointment will be rescheduled)
  • Within 2 weeks of completing Workshop 2 (required)
  • Questions? Contact our bariatric services coordinator at 858-616-5722

For Obesity Medication Patients:

You may be asked to complete these measurements prior to starting medications and at regular intervals while using medications. Contact your prescribing physician with any questions.

Delays in getting your weight/blood pressure checks will delay your process.
