Miami Bariatric and Plastic Surgery

Miami Bariatric and Plastic Surgery in Hialeah, Florida, operates under the medical direction of Dr. Sergey Terushkin, a board-certified surgeon holding credentials from the American Board of Obesity Medicine (DABOM), the American Board of Surgery (DABS-FPMBS), and fellowships in both the American College of Surgeons (FACS) and the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (FASMBS).

Dr. Terushkin's multi-specialty training allows the clinic to integrate surgical bariatric procedures, cosmetic surgery, and advanced medical weight loss protocols under one roof. This combination positions the practice as a comprehensive resource for patients in Hialeah and greater Miami-Dade County seeking both procedural and non-surgical approaches to weight management and body composition optimization.

Miami Bariatric and Plastic Surgery offers an extensive peptide therapy program with 7 different peptides available, including metabolic peptides including Semaglutide, Tirzepatide, growth hormone secretagogues like Sermorelin, and other specialized compounds.

Treatment selection is individualized based on comprehensive health assessments and patient goals. Dr. Terushkin's certification by the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery reflects specialized training in the physiological and hormonal complexities of obesity, which informs his approach to peptide selection and dosing.

His background in both obesity medicine and plastic surgery enables him to address the aesthetic and functional concerns that arise after significant weight loss, including skin laxity, muscle loss, and metabolic adaptation.

The clinic's protocols are designed to support patients through the full continuum of care - from pre-operative optimization and surgical intervention to post-operative recovery and long-term weight maintenance.

This integrated model is particularly relevant for bariatric patients who may benefit from peptide therapy to preserve lean mass, accelerate healing, and manage the metabolic shifts that occur after restrictive or malabsorptive procedures.

Patients begin with a consultation that includes a review of medical history, current medications, weight loss goals, and any prior surgical interventions. For those considering bariatric surgery, the initial evaluation assesses candidacy and discusses the role of adjunctive therapies such as GLP-1 medications or peptide support.

For medical weight loss patients, the focus is on metabolic assessment, body composition analysis, and the development of a personalized plan that may include Semaglutide or Tirzepatide alongside nutritional guidance.

Peptide therapy is introduced based on individual needs - whether for recovery support, metabolic enhancement, or aesthetic improvement. Follow-up visits track progress through weight trends, lab work, and patient-reported outcomes, with adjustments made to medication dosing or peptide protocols as needed.

The clinic emphasizes accountability and structured follow-up to ensure patients remain on track toward their goals. Miami Bariatric and Plastic Surgery offers both in-person consultations at the Hialeah location and telehealth appointments for established patients or those seeking initial evaluation for medical weight loss and peptide therapy.

Telehealth access expands availability for patients across Florida who may not be able to travel regularly but still require ongoing monitoring and prescription management. The clinic's dual focus on surgical and non-surgical interventions provides flexibility for patients at different stages of their weight loss journey, whether they are exploring initial options, recovering from surgery, or maintaining long-term results.

This breadth of services, combined with Dr. Terushkin's subspecialty training, distinguishes the practice within the South Florida metabolic and aesthetic medicine landscape. Sergey Terushkin· MD, FACS, FASMBS, DABOM, DABS-FPMBS This directory is an independent directory.
