Core Bariatrics

Dr. Maria Iliakova & Tammie Lakose

Welcome to Core Bariatrics, the podcast dedicated to walking your bariatric journey with you. Hosted by a bariatric surgeon and her very first bariatric patient. Their paths crossed as patient-doctor, but now they work and lead together. This podcast is your trusted source for valuable insights, expert advice, and inspiring stories that will empower you to make informed decisions about your health. In each episode, we explore the world of bariatric surgery, covering a wide range of topics such as different types of procedures, pre-surgery preparation, post-surgery care, nutrition, exercise, mental health and much much more.
