We understand how and why you have struggled with weight loss with limited success. We understand the frustrations of trying everything and finding that nothing works. We understand that being severely overweight is a medical problem with a strong genetic component that should be treated as a medical problem. We are pleased to offer you, finally, a lifelong solution - the help you need.

You may be concerned about your health. However, severely overweight people often do not realize how unhealthy they are, nor realize the risk that the excess can be over time.The health risks related to remaining obese are significant.  Most of these risks are resolved by the weight loss surgery program we can provide.

To help us better understand your health situation please fill out this Patient History Questionnaire.



Our weight loss surgery program is based on the philosophy that providing the best possible surgical services is only one important aspect of the care provided by Rocky Mountain Weight Loss Surgery and The Weight Loss Center at Cheyenne Regional Medical Center.

  • We understand that  weight loss surgery alone does not produce success.
  • It takes a genuine desire and commitment from the patient to learn to use the surgical "tool" that weight loss surgery provides.
  • We are committed to give you the encouragement, information, follow-up and support to help you attain long term success and safety.
