Verified listingAbout Michael Sutker, MD, PA
Michael Sutker, MD, PA is a bariatric surgery practice in Dallas that also runs a medical weight-loss program for patients who aren't candidates for surgery, or who want to try a non-surgical route first. Dr. Sutker is board certified in general surgery, a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons, and a Fellow of the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery — credentials that matter if you're specifically looking for a surgeon rather than a med-spa-style weight-loss operator. The practice has been open since 2014.
On the surgical side, the practice performs sleeve gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, and revisional surgery for patients who've had a prior weight-loss procedure that needs to be redone or adjusted, using laparoscopic and robotic-assisted techniques. For patients who aren't pursuing surgery, there's a medical weight-loss program built around diet and medication management, though the practice doesn't name which specific medications are used in that program — if you're hoping for a particular drug like semaglutide or tirzepatide by name, you'll need to ask directly rather than assume.
Pricing isn't published for either the surgical procedures or the medical weight-loss program, which is fairly typical for bariatric surgery practices since costs vary heavily by procedure, insurance coverage, and individual patient factors — but it does mean you can't get even a ballpark figure without a consultation. Insurance acceptance isn't stated either, and surgical weight-loss coverage varies a lot by plan and employer, so that's worth confirming early in the process. Telehealth availability also isn't addressed.
Office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with the office closed on weekends — standard business hours for a surgical practice, though it means no evening or weekend flexibility if that's something you need.
For someone comparing surgical and non-surgical weight-loss options in Dallas, this practice is worth knowing about specifically because it offers both under one roof, with a surgeon who has the specific bariatric-surgery credentials that a general weight-loss clinic typically won't have. The gap is that you won't find pricing, insurance details, or medication names on the website itself — those are consultation-only conversations here.
