Bariatric Centers of America
Meet our Team
Michael Blaney, MD
CEO, Medical Director
Dr. Mike Blaney is an Army veteran and West Point graduate. He is a board-certified general surgeon, practicing bariatric surgery in private practice for 20 years. Frustrated with his own bariatric clinic operations, Dr. Blaney had a vision for a smarter, more streamlined approach to obesity surgery and patient care. He recognized how fragmented the field of weight loss surgery is and thus was inspired to build Bariatric Centers of America to share his knowledge with other providers.
