The Patient Experience
Dr. Emmanuel takes a personalized, education-focused approach to bariatric and general surgery, helping each patient understand every available option, including the expected results of each approach, before making a decision. He offers sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass, duodenal switch and SADI, gastric balloon, revisional procedures, hernia and gallbladder surgery, and medical weight-loss care. His goal is to support patients in choosing the path that best fits their needs while helping them achieve better health and regain the everyday activities that obesity may have limited, from playing with their children to enjoying a fuller, more active life.
From the first appointment through treatment and recovery, Dr. Emmanuel and the Strive Surgical team help patients move forward with fewer obstacles. Patient Concierges guide them through the process, including the insurance requirements, while Strive’s collaborative network provides access to specialists such as cardiologists, pulmonologists, nutritionists, psychologists, and plastic surgeons when appropriate. With practical guidance and support at every step, patients are encouraged to focus on progress—not perfection—as they work toward becoming healthier.
