Bariatric Dietitians
(Weight Loss Surgery Clinics)

The high prevalence of obesity (class III) and greater recognition that weight loss surgery is a safe and effective treatment sees more individuals presenting for care. For those of us working in a bariatric surgery team it’s rewarding to see more patients embrace dietary change to improve their health and quality of life. This increasing demand for our expertise does present challenges, especially as we aim to maintain the quality of our dietetic care.

All bariatric clinics operate a little differently but some common challenges include:

  • Maintaining a high level of dietetic care for telehealth consultations;
  • Finding alternative appointments when patients need to reschedule or forget to attend;
  • Finding extra dietetic time to support more complex patients;
  • Maintaining job satisfaction due the repetitive nature of some activities such as education on perioperative dietary prescriptions (VLED, nourishing fluids, puree and staged transition to normal foods);
  • Finding time and energy to update clinical resources;
  • Maintaining an economically viable and rewarding practice.

The Enlighten Partner Program can help
