Direct peers

• Salem Health Bariatric Surgery Center: Salem Health operates an MBSAQIP-accredited bariatric surgery program serving the mid-Willamette Valley in Oregon, offering the same gastric bypass and sleeve procedures as Southern Oregon Bariatric Center to an overlapping state-wide patient population.
• Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery: OHSU's bariatric surgery program in Portland, OR is the closest regional direct peer. It performs similar laparoscopic gastric bypass and sleeve procedures, serves patients from across Oregon, and competes with Southern Oregon Bariatric Center for the same Pacific Northwest patient pool.
• Legacy Health Weight Loss Surgery Center: Legacy Health operates a weight-loss surgery program out of Legacy Good Samaritan in Portland, OR, offering comparable Roux-en-Y and sleeve gastrectomy procedures to Oregon residents and competing for the same referral network as Southern Oregon Bariatric Center.
• PeaceHealth Weight Loss Surgery Center: PeaceHealth's bariatric program in Vancouver, WA serves patients across southern Washington and northern Oregon with comparable procedures. It competes directly with SO Bariatric for patients traveling between Oregon and Washington.
• Samaritan Health Services Weight Management Institute: Samaritan's weight-management program in Corvallis, OR offers bariatric surgery and medical weight-loss services to central Oregon patients.

Broad incumbents

• MultiCare Health System Weight Loss & Bariatric Surgery: MultiCare operates bariatric surgery services across the Puget Sound region in Washington state. As a large multi-hospital system, it competes with SO Bariatric for Pacific Northwest patients willing to travel for surgery.
