Yesterday @OhioStateSurg hosted their 1st multidisciplinary Grand Rounds with GI, IR, and surgery, featuring the breadth of advanced therapeutics offered by our three divisions and the impact of our care coordination through the Biliary Board! So proud to be a part of this TEAM!

Our new paper is out! Thank you to Arya Dass and @psweigert for including me on this interesting project. Hope this can help clinicians identify patients who might want to consider MBS as part of their obesity treatment. Link to the pub here: doi.org/10.1016/j.surg.2026.…
GLP-1s transformed obesity care—but meds aren’t for everyone.
Our latest work highlights an important group with severe obesity who still seek escalation to metabolic surgery. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Surgery is a differentiated, critically important therapy for the right pt.
Join us for the @AcademicSurgery Fall Courses this year Sept 25 in Washington DC. Great lineup at the Early Career Dev Course ideal for trainees and new faculty! aasurg.org/aas-fall-courses/ @AEjaz85
Huge turnout for our first @OhioStateMed Surgery Interest Group session of the year. Knot tying 🪢 and dinner for our brand new M1’s. The future is bright! @OSUWexMed @OhioStateSurg @timpawlik

For years, Jennifer avoided the foods & activities she loved while searching for answers. Thanks to the care from #OhioStateSurg Dr. Patrick Sweigert (@psweigert) & Ohio State's Comprehensive Esophageal Health Center, she's back to enjoying meals & travel

After years of conflicting diagnoses, specialists eventually blamed Jennifer's condition on anxiety, leaving her discouraged.
But everything changed when she found #OSUWexMed doctors who listened and understood her symptoms. health.osu.edu/health/genera…

🗣️Hot off the press—Robotic cholecystectomy—new technology but safe principles still apply 🤖
Great work by our @SAGES_Updates Safe Chole group to highlight commitment to CVS no matter the platform

It’s an interesting trend - unclear what indications are for early adjuvant GLPs but more work to be done to understand optimal role after surgery! For primary/secondary surgical non responders, comorbids, or to augment wt loss trajectory? More to come!
Really interesting talk by @stefrohde from @OSUWexMed. De novo GLP1 RA use post op is increasing, and many providers are prescribing it within the first year! #SAGES2026 @SAGES_Updates @psweigert

📈The percentage of bariatric surgery-eligible adults with #obesity who received a prescription for semaglutide or tirzepatide was
📌 0.22% in fourth quarter of 2018
📌 24.17% in third quarter of 2025

Proud to share our work. Important note: GLP-1s and metabolic surgery aren’t competitors—they’re complementary tools along a treatment continuum for a chronic, relapsing disease. The field isn’t shrinking. It’s evolving.
Use of #GLP1 receptor agonists surged among patients eligible for metabolic and #BariatricSurgery from 2018 to 2025, while surgery utilization decreased by nearly half, especially for sleeve gastrectomy.
