Bariatric Surgery in Massachusetts with Dr. Pecquex I decided to become a doctor because I wanted to help people. In terms of bariatrics, there are not many surgeries that can affect as many systems in the body as there is with bariatric surgery. We can affect sleep apnea, high blood pressure, diabetes, joint problems, and cardiac issues. We can address a lot of those issues with one surgery and I think for me, that's a huge impact and I like to help people in the maximal way possible. -Dr. Nicole Pecquex Dr. Pecquex is held in high regard by her patients and colleagues.
