Exploring Patients' Perceptions and Anticipated Concerns Regarding Bariatric Surgery

By exploring patients' perceptions, we aim to identify the factors that influence their decision-making process, their expectations, and any specific concerns they may have prior to undergoing bariatric laparoscopic surgery. This information can help healthcare providers and surgeons improve preoperative counseling, address patient fears or anxieties, and provide targeted education to enhance patients' understanding of the procedure. Healthcare professionals can tailor their communication and support strategies, ensuring that patients have realistic expectations and feel more confident in their decision to undergo bariatric laparoscopic surgery.
