WeightWise Bariatric Program in Edmond

It has been a long journey to get to this point. I am Soo extremely thankful for Dr Walton, Jayme Peters and the rest of the people who helped through this process. Dr. Walton preformed a gastric bypass on 1/16/23. I honestly can't say enough good things about him. I knew he was a great surgeon, but he's honestly a great person as well. Great bedside manners, and he actually cares and listens to your concerns and explains everything thoroughly. From the very start of my weight loss journey until present has been nothing less than impressive. Thank you Weight wise! I will be recommending you to all my weight loss friends.

Awesome team. Had my bypass done Friday, Sept 13. Dr Walton is the best. Great bedside manners and just an overall great doctor and human. He is a very special person in my life. So thankful God chose him for his talent. Weightwise staff is also great. Anytime you need something or have a question, they are there for you. They are all lifesavers. 🙏🏼

Dr. Broussard did my sleeve surgery in May 2014 and I have successfully stayed my smaller weight and size for 10 years now. The surgery made me realize how little food our bodies actually require, especially if we eat a truly balanced diet. Portion control has been my key and is second nature utilizing food prep and small containers. At restaurants I portion out my serving on the plate and the rest goes into the to-go box for 2-3 more meals. I have a willpower that amazes me after all these years. I can confidently wear everything in my closet. Sleeve surgery here changed my life and I am so grateful. I come back to the website once a year just to remember how much it's meant to me and decided to leave an update. They are still here. You can do it!!

From the start of the process of deciding to move forward with weight loss surgery, this team has been impeccable! From my patient advocate Jayme Peters, to the Dietician Gretchen, Dr Walton and the whole Summit staff! Thank you !!! I have a date scheduled for surgery, and I know that my post op experience will be just as amazing as the preop has been! Special shout out to Jayme for her patience and kindness of my constant email questions!

They all seem like really nice people. Whatever happened with my appointment I do not know, all I do know is I never heard anything back until the following monday and was told the earliest they could reschedule me due to my work schedule is over a month and 10 days out from the original appointment.

I’m so thankful for Dr. Broussard getting me into gel me yesterday. I’m going to work hard to try and put on weight like he suggested so I can fix my issues. He was so kind to me, offered a sympathetic ear, and reassured me that he would take care of me. Ever since the Journey clinic shut down, WeightWise is my new clinic, and I’m just so thankful they got me in so quickly. Thank you Dr. Broussard and all the staff at weight wise right now.

Dr. Walton and his team are amazing. The support I have gotten before my procedure and after has been next level. I have met other people who had bariatric surgery, and they didn't receive the support that the Weightwise clinic provides. The nurse practitioners, patient advocates, and dieticians made navigating the process so much easier. Getting the gastric sleeve in Dec 2018 was the best decision I made in my life. Dr. Walton and his team really care about you having a healthier life. They provide you with everything possible to meet your weight loss goals. I am forever grateful for what the Weightwise clinic has done for me.

I have had such a great experience with Dr. Walton, Jayme, Jennifer, Grace, and Dr. Keller.The receptionists who answered the phone were always willing to help me when I needed anything. They go out of their to make sure you understand and are completely educqted in all processes leading up to surgery. I can't say enough positive things all of them.

I'm so excited for my journey with Weight Wise!! From day one the process has been easy and the staff is beyond amazing!! I have surgery in 2 weeks and every single question or concern was answered and there is ZERO judgment!! I had to have … More

Last week I had my first appointment with Dr. Walton and met my Patient Advocate (Jayme Peters). I was met with open arms and zero judgment. Just an opportunity to move forward on my weight loss journey. I'm looking forward to becoming healthier and spending active quality time with my family.

I’ve been struggling with writing this review for a long time because having weight loss surgery changed my life but I have a very mixed opinion of WeightWise (WW). I’m about 1.5 years out from having SADI surgery. I was told by WW that in 2022 they only did around 30 of that surgery but they mostly do bypass surgery. I give 5 stars to Dr. Walton, my patient advocate, and the staff and hospital in Edmond. I have zero complaints about them. They were all amazing. I do not care for any of the Metabolic Center staff - these are the nurse practitioners and dieticians that handle most of your care. There is very little interaction with the surgeons. My NP was a nice lady, but all the meetings were video calls, she was always late, distracted and in a rush. Once during a visit she actually got up and left the room and was gone so long I just hung up. Once (prior to surgery) she told me she wanted see me every 3 months for 18 months – and, after surgery you only get a couple follow up visits included in the cost. Then they want to charge you $155 for a 10 minute distracted phone call (when you don’t even need to see them because there’s nothing wrong). My insurance did not cover any of this, so I paid out of pocket and have not been back to see my NP once the free visits ended. Furthermore, my NP continually gave me bad advice that was for bypass patients and not switch/SADI patients. There is a HUGE difference between those two surgeries. They are not the same thing, the structure of the stomach is hugely different as is how we digest food. Nearly all the information I was given was rules for bypass patients. For example, they tell you that you can never eat and drink again at the same time. That’s a bypass rule. With the switch surgery your entire stomach structure is intact – including the pyloric value which is what regulates how food and liquid exits to be digested. Bypass patients no longer have that value with is why they are told to not drink and eat at the same time (because your food just flushes through). Another example of wrong information given to me by the NP was that I can not, under NO CIRCUMSTANCES, take NSAID medications (Advil) again. This is completely incorrect – the entire reason that I chose the SADI surgery was because you can take NSAIDs and I have 2 auto immune disorders that require NSAID medications to treat. I spoke with Dr. W about this several times and he told me it was fine to take NSAIDS as needed. I also dislike the dieticians – I seemed to just get passed around between people, and never felt like I established a relationship with any of them because they kept changing who I was seeing. The two ladies I did see the most were nice, but very rigid and again only giving out information for bypass surgery patients – NOT Sadi surgeries. For example, they preach you have to eat low fat everything. For Said patients that isn’t correct. With the switch surgery you lose weight because of malabsorption (rerouting of your intestines) and that means you’re not absorbing most of the fat you eat (you poo most of it straight out). So if you eat low fat you’re going to have a lot of trouble with pooping. SADI patients need to eat a lot more fat to keep things moving. Anyway – I have a ton of examples like that and I find it extremely frustrating to just continually be given wrong information. The dieticians are useless because they won’t deviate in any way from “the plan” – even if it doesn’t pertain to the type of surgery I had. Oh, and WeightWise makes you pay in advance for the diet and exercise people for TWO YEARS post op. So, I can’t trust the advice of the dieticians or my nurse practitioner and once you’re 6 months post op you stop having access to Dr. W or your advocate. If you’re not willing to do a TON of research on your own or join some online support groups for duodenal switch patients, you shouldn’t get the SADI surgery here. If you want to get the bypass you’ll be fine.

I'm so excited for my journey with Weight Wise!! From day one the process has been easy and the staff is beyond amazing!! I have surgery in 2 weeks and every single question or concern was answered and there is ZERO judgment!! I had to have an iron fusion due to anemia and I met the sweetest nurse and im sad i cant remember her name but I'll see her at surgery! Dr. B has been the greatest and has never just made me feel like a number. My advocate Kallie has gotten a million emails from me and is always super sweet and helpful. Austin and Grace are amazing as well as Melissa!! Can't wait for sucess with this amazing team!!
