Accredited Bariatric Surgery Center

Safe and Quality Care

Baylor Dallas is accredited by the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program (MBSAQIP). Faced with clinical evidence that the most experienced and best-run bariatric surgery programs have by far the lowest rates of complications, MBSAQIP was created to recognize bariatric surgery centers that perform well and to help surgeons and hospitals continue to improve the quality and safety of care provided.

Not only does this distinction recognize the quality of care, but also qualifies Baylor Dallas to be recognized as an approved facility for Weight Loss Surgery by several insurance companies.
