About This Practice

Summa Physicians LLC is enumerated with NPPES as a Bariatric Surgery clinic; the CMS registry also lists obesity medicine among its taxonomies. The registry does not break out which specialties are staffed at this location — call ahead to confirm obesity-medicine or GLP-1 services are actively offered here.

Locally, this is 1 of 72 Surgery practices in Akron carrying this exact taxonomy in our directory.

What to expect at a Bariatric Surgery visit

Bariatric-surgery practices evaluate patients for surgical and, in many cases, medical weight-management paths. An initial consult often includes:

  • •An eligibility assessment (typically BMI-based) and a review of prior weight-loss efforts.
  • •A discussion of surgical options alongside non-surgical routes, which can include GLP-1 pharmacotherapy before or after surgery.
  • •A multidisciplinary work-up (nutrition, sometimes behavioral health) as part of surgical planning.
  • •A coverage and cost review, since surgical and medication benefits are handled differently by most plans.

This is general guidance for bariatric surgery practices, not a description of Summa Physicians LLC's specific protocol, services, or pricing. Confirm what a visit involves directly with the practice — 330-375-7494.
