Dallas, Texas, Apr. 12, 2018 – The Nicholson Clinic celebrates World Health Day, sponsored by the World Health Organization, by highlighting the many health benefits their patients enjoy each day post-surgery. The Nicholson Clinic celebrates their patients, not only this World Health Day, but each day of a patient’s newly lengthened life.

The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development studied the global economic impacts of obesity and found that for every 33 pounds of excess weight,a person’s chances of dying were 30 percent higher than those of normal weight. Furthermore, they found an obese person’s lifespan to be up to 10 years shorter than a person of normal weight.

“For those who struggle with weight loss, bariatric surgery can have profound effects, it’s important, however, to work closely with a qualified surgeon.” says Dr. Thomas Roshek, laparoscopic bariatric surgeon at the award-winning weight loss surgery clinic.
