s Perth Bariatric Centre was founded by Dr Gordon Padovan following his return to Australia in 2005. His goal was to build a weight loss surgery practice that would provide a premium level of care to patients who are contemplating having Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass, Lap Sleeve or Lap Band . Consulting Regularly in Mandurah and Perth (main rooms) as well as Albany, Port Hedland and Kalgoorlie, Dr Padovan strives to provide quality care and service. Emerge Surgical has been set up as a multi disciplinary weight loss centre dedicated to achieving the best possible results. We have grown such that we now operate on hundreds of patients each year and manage the long-term care of thousands of men and women who have undergone Bariatric Surgery procedures. Dr Padovan also looks after post surgery issues (excess skin--ie tummy tuck, and arm lifts) and performs a large amount of revisional surgery (removal of band, band to sleeve etc)
Having Weight loss surgery is just the first step on your road to recovery. Evidence shows that a weight loss surgery with a strong multidisciplinary approach will have significantly better results than a non multidisciplinary approach. It is therefore recommended by leading bariatric surgeons around the globe.
