Getting Started

Program Requirements

  • Body Mass Index: You must have a BMI of 40 or above, or between 35 and 40 with a weight-related health condition such as diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol or sleep apnea.
  • Age: You must be between 18 and 65 years of age.
  • Weight Limit: We do not typically operate on people over 350 pounds. We are happy to see people over that weight in consultation.
  • Insurance: We take Blue Cross, Harvard Pilgrim, Tufts and Commonwealth Indemnity. We do have a cash-pay option for those patients whose insurance does not cover the procedure.

Next Steps

  • Join us for a free seminar at our office to learn more about the band, meet our surgeons and hear directly from one of our patients. You can register here or call our office (781) 769-5550.
  • After the seminar you will be welcome to sign up for an initial consultation with one of our surgeons. Our office staff will assist you with your insurance and scheduling other pre-operative appointments.
