John DeBarros Bariatric Surgeon M.D.

I just had my lap-band surgery with WLIA. All went smooth, the nurses were wonderful and Dr. DeBarros explained the entire procedure putting me at ease. Thank you for making this process so simple to complete.

Dr Debarros will be doing my surgery later this year. I have found have a great office team with a support system available including Mike a nutritionist. I am very excited to be on this road with a great team.

I started my journey in 2013. I wish I had started earlier. Dr. DeBarros explained everything to me completely. I felt very comfortable by the time my surgery date came. Now that I have had the surgery I am still getting the same care. Sometimes waiting for appointments can be long, but that happens in any doctors office. His office has all the tools you need for successful weight loss. The support you get from his office is awesome, which is what I needed. I like the support groups and the Facebook support also. It is an office you feel welcome in.

Dr.DeBarros and his staff are amazing everyone made me feel like they really cared they really took all the stress of going through with this surgery away I am very happy with The Weight Loss Institute Of Arizona

I became aware of Dr DeBarros when I required emergency gall bladder surgery. The first time we met was me on a gurney waiting to be taken into surgery. In that emergency situation, he was confident and reassuring. The follow up visit with him left a lasting positive impression.

Fast forward 6 years, I am researching weight loss surgeries and my first thought was Dr DeBarros. He is very thorough and honest when answering questions and discussing options. If he has concerns or hesitations about a certain procedure, he will ensure the proper tests are performed. He checked all of my information in the system and verified all the information was correct. He did not just take for granted that others had entered the information correctly. Dr DeBarros will be performing an EGD to make sure I am a candidate for the sleeve. I am excited about the EGD and finding out the results. I highly recommend Dr DeBarros. I wish you all a happy journey.....SMS

I have been seeing Dr. DeBarros for two months. He always make me feel comfortable and at ease when I visit. He give me dieting tips to help manage my weight.
I am just getting started with the beginning of the surgery. I have to follow up for 6 months with him per my insurance before the surgery.
Dr. DeBarros and his staff are very friendly and courteous.

Dr. John DeBarros of Weight Loss Institute of Arizona (WLIA) and his staff have made the lap band process possible for me. Their program works with my insurance program. They have made the financial, insurance, lap band and medical processes easy to understand. Their team works with you every step of the way. I highly recommend WLIA for anyone searching for an expert and reliable doctor and medical team for weight loss. Regards, LBoden.

I had my first consultation regarding possible weight loss surgery the other day and I met with Dr. DeBarros. He was incredibly knowledgable and helped me with understanding what options I had in addition to answering any and all questions that I had. Definitely a 5 star review! I left that appointment that day knowing that this was a good decision!

Review for Dr. John De Barros is recommended, helpful and informative.
