ABOUT THE EVENING


This is not another weight loss seminar. If you’ve been living with obesity and wondering what your real options are, this evening was designed for you. Just honest, expert conversation about why obesity is a medical condition, what treatments are genuinely available, and what life can look like on the other side.

Hosted by Dr Siva Gounder and the Perth Weight Loss & Surgery team, this intimate evening is strictly limited to 20 people because the best conversations happen when the room feels safe.

What You'll Experience


Current patients share their honest journeys. Real stories that include the fears, the process, the recovery, and the life they have now.

Dr Gounder explains surgical and medication options clearly, including when each is right, what outcomes look like, and the myths finally debunked.

An open Q&A discussion and supportive networking. It is the time to ask anything.
