What is the Quickstart Program?
As insurance coverage for bariatric surgery grows increasingly intricate and less comprehensive, coupled with restricted hospital options, our Quickstart Program is designed to offer a holistic and uncomplicated solution to combat the obesity epidemic.
At Idaho BMI, our primary commitment is to ensure the success of your weight loss surgery procedure through what you eat, how you eat, and when you eat – to re-program your brain.
Idaho BMI’s 3-Incision Technique
We perform a new 3-incision laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy that is the least invasive approach to this operation anywhere in the world. And our safety record is unsurpassed. Most of our patients return home, or to their hotel, 1-3 hours after the operation.
Idaho’s Leading Surgeon and Outpatient Surgery Center
From state-of-the-art facilities and equipment, to our dedicated and compassionate staff, you are truly cared for every step of the way, all the way.
Dedicated Patient Navigator
Our staff will guide you through each step of the process to ensure clarity and transparency.
Referral Not Necessary
Regardless of the pre-operative clearances, testing & examinations you need, we take care of them right here in Boise, Idaho.

Our Quickstart program does not require you to have had a previous medical weight loss treatment.
No Waiting Period
