Welcome to Foothills Weight Loss Surgeons

Foothills Weight Loss and Fort Sanders Regional remain in-network for all UnitedHealthcare products and networks. If you have insurance with United, call us and avoid the extra out-of-network fees at Tennova.
Foothills Weight Loss is the first surgical weight loss practice in the Knoxville area. Since 2002 we have performed more than 3,000 bariatric procedures, helping those individuals improve their lives through weight loss surgery.
We know that bariatric surgery can improve or resolve many serious obesity-related problems such as diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, acid reflux, weight-bearing joint pain, and sleep apnea. We are passionate about giving our patients the tools they need to improve their lives and health for the long term.
Foothills and Premier Surgical are now partnered with MDsave to offer self-pay patients convenient financing options including CareCredit. Visit www.mdsave.com./premier-surgical for details.
Announcing Our New Online Seminar
An informed choice begins with learning. This is why at Foothills Weight Loss Surgeons, we provide our prospective patients with a free informational seminar. We are excited to announce the launch of our new and improved online seminar!
We believe that equipping our patients with the right information is one of the first steps in achieving better health. While we offer live (in-person) seminars, we know that your schedule and location may prevent you from attending, so we’ve created an online seminar to help educate you about the bariatric surgery process before beginning your journey. Go to the online seminar.
Obalon is available at Foothills!
Obalon is the FIRST and ONLY swallowable, FDA-approved balloon system for weight loss. The Obalon Balloon System helps facilitate weight loss by taking up space in your stomach so you eat less. Visit our OBALON webpage to learn more.
