Bariatric Post-Op Follow-Up Questionnaire

What a bariatric post-op follow-up questionnaire asks, with sample questions on meals, fluids, vitamins, and support.

A bariatric post-op follow-up questionnaire records how a patient is doing after weight loss surgery: visit timing, health conditions, meals, fluids, vitamins, and exercise. The questions here are based on the Kaiser Permanente Washington Bariatric Group Follow-Up Questionnaire.

AI Doctor, a real-time AI healthcare assistant avatar, asks the questions on a bariatric post-op follow-up questionnaire in the patient's own language, strictly following the practice's instructions.

Clinician reviewing a patient's bariatric post-op follow-up questionnaire answers collected by the AI Doctor avatar
  • Intake before the visit. Patients answer online before they arrive, or at a kiosk when they check in.
  • Answers ready for the clinician. Clinicians see what the patient said before the visit starts.
  • Less workload at the front desk. Staff spend less time handing out forms and entering answers by hand.
  • Key details at a glance. The care team sees what matters up front and decides who needs attention first.

The form becomes a natural conversation: patients answer by talking, in their own words. AI Doctor is an information and patient-assistance interface. It collects answers for the care team to review. It doesn't diagnose, triage, or give treatment advice.

Bariatric post-op follow-up questionnaire: FAQ

What does a bariatric post-op follow-up questionnaire ask?

The sample questions on this page are based on the Kaiser Permanente Washington Bariatric Group Follow-Up Questionnaire. This page groups them into six areas: visit, conditions, meals, fluids, vitamins, and lifestyle.

Who fills it in, and when?

The patient, before a follow-up visit. The Kaiser Permanente Washington form is for group visits at 6 months, 1 year, and 2 or more years, and patients email it in before the appointment.

Does it ask about vitamins?

Yes. The form lists a multivitamin with minerals, calcium citrate, vitamin B12, vitamin D, and iron, and asks the dose and how many times a day each is taken.

Does the form leave room for private concerns?

Yes. The follow-up takes place in a group visit, so the form asks whether the patient has concerns they would not be comfortable sharing in the group.

Is there a template?

The sample questions on this page show a typical set, taken from one health system's group follow-up form.

What happens after the bariatric post-op follow-up questionnaire is completed?

The bariatric team reviews the answers together with measurements staff record at the visit, such as weight and blood pressure. AI Doctor only collects the patient's answers.

Does AI Doctor give medical advice?

No. It collects information for the care team. It doesn't diagnose, triage, or recommend treatment.

Can patient answers stay on our own servers?

Yes. RAVATAR offers on-prem deployment: the platform can run inside your own perimeter, so patient answers stay there. RAVATAR complies with GDPR and the EU AI Act.
