The journey of a bariatric patient in Hořovice Hospital

5. 1. 2024

Hořovice Hospital together with ETHICON part of the Johnson & Johnson organization cordially invites everyone to a bariatric seminar that will provide a unique opportunity to explore and discuss key aspects of surgical treatment of obesity. As obesity becomes an increasingly prevalent health problem, it is imperative to find effective and sustainable solutions.

The online seminar will take place on 10 January 2024 at 18:00.

This joint meeting will provide a deeper understanding of bariatric procedures as well as their impact on patients' lives. Updates in the field of bariatric surgery will be discussed, and the seminar will also provide ample space for open discussion. Patients will be able to ask the most knowledgeable people in the field directly after the lecture about anything they are interested in or concerned about.

The aim of the seminar is to provide as much information as possible to patients, or even their family members, about treatment procedures and the surgical procedure itself, including post-operative care.
