Atlanta Bariatrics specializes in weight loss surgery for morbidly obese patients.
Atlanta Bariatrics at Johns Creek Surgery, PC has served the Atlanta community for over 15 years offering the most comprehensive treatment for patients suffering from obesity. Representing the best in their fields, Atlanta Bariatrics’s surgeons, Dr. Christopher J. Hart and Dr. William H. Johnson, bring special expertise to their patients to treat obesity by modification of the gastrointestinal tract to reduce nutrient intake and/or absorption.
