Introducing the Emerge Surgical Story

Once upon a time in Perth, Australia, Dr. Gordon Padovan had a vision. In 2005, he founded Emerge Surgical with a mission to provide exceptional care to individuals considering Bariatric (Obesity) Surgery. Driven by his passion for helping patients, he embarked on a journey to build a practice that would make a real difference in people’s lives.

Emerge Surgical started its practice in Rockingham, near Perth, where surgeries were performed at both Waikiki Hospital and The Mount Hospital in the heart of the city. As the patient base grew, a second set of consulting rooms was established at The Mount Hospital to accommodate the increasing demand.

Over the years, Emerge Surgical has blossomed into a thriving center, performing surgeries on hundreds of patients annually and providing ongoing care to thousands who have undergone various bariatric and lap band surgery operations. The dedication and commitment of the team have been instrumental in this growth.

The Emerge Surgical approach to Obesity Surgery is one of personalized care and strategic planning. There’s no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to treating patients. Each individual is unique, and the management team carefully considers their specific circumstances to determine the best course of action.

Before proceeding with obesity surgery, patients undergo a thorough consultation where their medical history is examined, and their desires from the surgery are taken into account. This crucial step allows the professionals at Emerge Surgical to fully understand the patient and educate them about the potential risks and benefits involved.

Even if surgery is not the right option, Emerge Surgical remains committed to finding the appropriate solution for each patient. Both surgical and non-surgical alternatives require significant lifestyle and dietary changes for long-term success in weight loss. That’s why Emerge Surgical has a qualified team of dietitians and other health professionals who provide valuable support to help patients achieve and maintain their goal weight.

A vital aspect of Emerge Surgical’s comprehensive follow-up care is addressing the issue of excess skin that often accompanies weight loss. Depending on the patient’s needs, various body contouring procedures, including abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), brachioplasty, and thigh reductions, can be performed to enhance their appearance. Dr. Padovan, the skilled surgeon behind Emerge Surgical, personally performs all of these procedures, ensuring the highest level of expertise and care.

Dr. Padovan’s success in helping thousands of individuals achieve sustained weight loss speaks for itself. The rewards are immense—weight loss brings not only improved health but also a renewed sense of hope, energy, and self-confidence, leading to a better quality of life.
