Bariatric clinic referrals

Jun 28, 2024

The Calgary Adult Bariatric Specialty Clinic is asking referring providers to use one of two options:

  • Complete its referral form
  • Send a letter that includes patient demographics, provider information, specialists involved in care, BMI, weight, highest adult weight, medical and bariatric surgery history, and any special requirements

Following a referral:

  • Patients will be contacted to come to the clinic to complete screening tools after a referral is received.
  • Referring providers will be sent a referral receipt and notice of the triage outcome.

Referral criteria are listed in the form. Post-sleeve gastrectomy follow-up guidelines have also been amended.
