Patient Guide to Bariatric Surgery for Obesity with Type 2 Diabetes

DOWNLOAD RESOURCE

Updated: 03/20/25

Bariatric surgery works to treat type 2 diabetes by improving your body's natural insulin production, insulin sensitivity, and helping you lose weight. Bariatric surgery can help you achieve diabetes remission, meaning your blood sugar is in normal range (A1c < 5.7%) without medication. Bariatric surgery can be especially beneficial for individuals recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Learn more about bariatric surgery with this handout.
