Extend bariatric surgical oversight beyond the clinic.
The AI Surgical Care Companion helps bariatric surgeons and Medical Directors extend program-approved guidance, support patient visibility between visits, and introduce responsible healthcare AI without removing physician oversight.
For bariatric surgeons, Medical Directors, and program directors responsible for clinical quality, patient safety, innovation, and program oversight.
Campaign focus
One surgeon-guided patient-engagement pathway powered by the AI Surgical Care Companion.
Important recovery information often appears after the patient leaves your direct view.
Bariatric patients manage hydration, protein, diet progression, vitamins, medications, activity, pain, nausea, vomiting, wound concerns, and follow-up appointments at home. Patient-reported symptoms and at-home risk signals can arrive beside routine questions, while procedure type, revision history, age, pregnancy, comorbidities, and recovery stage affect what guidance is appropriate.
Support the bariatric work this role is accountable for.
Maintain clinical visibility
Use postoperative monitoring and clinical monitoring to organize patient-reported symptoms and make concerns easier for the bariatric team to review.
Extend surgeon-approved guidance
Reinforce preoperative patient education, discharge instructions, postoperative education, and procedure-specific recovery information between visits.
Preserve clinical judgment
Human-in-the-loop AI, physician oversight, and program-defined symptom escalation keep clinical decisions with qualified clinicians.
Support responsible innovation
Introduce responsible healthcare AI with clear AI privacy and security, patient data protection, and transparent workflow boundaries.
Primary product
Keep the bariatric care pathway connected after the patient goes home.
The AI Surgical Care Companion supports clinical monitoring across preparation and recovery. Patients can send messages and recovery questions through Waivs 24/7, and the platform organizes those patient inputs within program-defined workflows for care-team review. It reinforces surgeon-approved information, supports post-op patient follow-up, and surfaces at-home risk signals without diagnosing a complication or replacing clinical judgment.
—Reinforce procedure-specific education for sleeve gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, SADI-S, duodenal switch, adjustable gastric banding, and revisional or conversion surgery.
—Support preoperative patient education, readiness, liver shrinking diet instructions, medication guidance, and required preparation steps.
—Deliver discharge instructions in smaller, stage-appropriate steps and reinforce hydration, protein, vitamins, medications, mobility, and diet progression.
—Collect patient-reported symptoms related to pain, nausea, vomiting, wound changes, breathing concerns, poor intake, dehydration concerns, and food intolerance.
—Surface program-defined concerns for symptom escalation and care team escalation while keeping the clinical response human-led.
—Support long-term follow-up for nutrition, vitamins, laboratory monitoring, weight trajectory, pregnancy planning, mental health, and procedure-specific concerns.
Support patients across the bariatric journey.
Preparation and education
Preoperative patient education, procedure-specific expectations, digital intake, automated pre-op checklists, and patient reminders.
Recovery visibility
Post-op monitoring, postoperative monitoring, patient-reported symptoms, hydration, intake, diet tolerance, and at-home risk signals.
Escalation and complex pathways
Symptom escalation and care team escalation for program-defined concerns, plus history-aware support for revisions, conversions, pregnancy, and older patients.
Quality and continuous improvement
Quality metrics, quality reporting, outcomes data, recurring questions, and education gaps that can inform continuous quality improvement.
Procedure-aware communication for a clinically varied patient population.
Waivs can support program-defined communication across sleeve gastrectomy (gastric sleeve), Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, SADI-S, biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch, adjustable gastric band procedures, and revisional or conversion bariatric surgery. The exact education, monitoring, and escalation pathway remains specific to the procedure, patient, and bariatric program.
Your bariatric program remains accountable and in control.
Waivs should be presented as responsible healthcare AI. Human-in-the-loop AI, physician oversight, clinical oversight, AI privacy and security, and patient data protection remain central to the platform. AI does not replace clinical judgment. Review the Waivs Trust Centre for current compliance, voice governance, privacy, and data-use information.

Waivs can support efforts related to patient safety, readmission-risk reduction, post-op care continuity, and surgical outcomes by reinforcing instructions and surfacing patient inputs. It should not be described as preventing postoperative complications, diagnosing conditions, or independently reducing readmissions without validated Waivs evidence.

How Waivs evaluates patient messages
Waivs does not make independent clinical judgments. It applies the customer's own bariatric program protocols, care guide, internal templates, and predefined escalation criteria to the available patient context. It identifies responses that match those criteria and surfaces them for authorized clinical review while the surgical team retains responsibility for interpretation and action.
