  • Before I came to Dr. Eslami I was diabetic,
    taking insulin and oral medication. I was also
    taking medication for high blood pressure and
    high cholesterol. Since my surgery, I no longer
    take medication, my diabetes is gone and I have
    lost over 70 lbs. I am so grateful for Dr.
    Eslami and his staff for all of the support and
    encouragement. It has been life changing and life
    saving for me.

Patient Info
  • Body Mass Index (BMI) is measure of body fat
    based on height and weight that applies to both
    adult men and women. BMI does not differentiate
    between body fat and muscle mass. Therefore, body
    builders and people who have a lot of muscle bulk
    will have a high BMI but are not overweight or
    obese.
  • BMI is usually a good indicator of body fat for
    most people. Although it doesnt directly measure
    body fat, it closely correlates to direct
    measures of body fat, such as underwater weighing.
