Meet Dr. Wiljon Beltre: Your Trusted Bariatric Surgeon in Orlando

Dr. Wiljon Beltre is a board-certified and fellowship-trained surgeon specializing in bariatric and metabolic surgery. As a leading bariatric surgeon in Orlando, he is dedicated to providing his patients with the highest quality care and helping them achieve lasting weight loss results.

Although Dr. Beltre has been dedicated to improving people’s lives through weight loss surgery since 1998, he was forced to close his private practice in 2008 after he was given the stunning diagnosis of advanced colorectal cancer. Determined not to give up and committed to fighting his disease for as long as possible, Dr. Beltre completed two rounds of chemotherapy and underwent major abdominal surgery. Incredibly, Dr. Beltre won his fight with cancer and reopened Beltre Bariatrics Center for Metabolic and Obesity Surgery in 2010.

In his own words: “I thank God, the many prayers and the doctors and nurses who took care of me. Thanks to all of them who helped healed me and give me a second chance to practice and use the talents he bestowed upon me. I may have lost my former practice because of my illness, but through the process I gained so much more. I treat all my patients with dignity and respect. I know what it is
like to be a patient and be without hope. I love what I do, and I love using my God-given talents to change people’s lives for the better.”
