The bariatric surgery center is now housed in 4,500 square feet of space at the Physician’s Office Building at 4900 Broad Road in the town of Onondaga. It had been in 1,800 square feet at the Institute for Human Performance at 505 Irving Ave. in Syracuse.
“Our volume has increased significantly,” Marcy Walser, a nurse practitioner with the practice, said in a news release. “This new location provides us with more space, more privacy, and greater comfort for our patients.”
