About

Dr. Eric Harris, MD, FACS, is a board-certified general surgeon specializing in bariatric and cosmetic surgery in Lynnwood, Washington. His practice offers both surgical and non-surgical solutions for weight loss, including Gastric Sleeve Surgery and MagnaSlim. Dr. Harris's team provides personalized weight loss programs, ensuring every patient receives a thoughtful evaluation and a treatment plan tailored to their individual needs, guiding them from initial evaluation through recovery. The practice emphasizes that weight loss surgery is designed to do more than reduce stomach size; it helps regulate hunger hormones, improve insulin resistance, and support long-term metabolic health.

For patients seeking body contouring after significant weight loss, such as Tummy Tucks and Mommy Makeovers, the focus is on improving comfort, mobility, and confidence.

Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Eric Harris

Sourced directly from Dr. Eric Harris's social posts and replies.

What is MagnaSlim and how does it work?
MagnaSlim is a weight loss procedure performed using a minimally invasive laparoscopic approach, designed to support weight loss by working with the body's natural physiology. The team helps determine if MagnaSlim is the right option for individual patients. For some, it can support significant improvements in metabolic health and weight loss, with clinical results showing reductions in A1C for type 2 diabetes patients. Many patients may experience approximately 20% total body weight loss as part of a comprehensive treatment plan.
What is required for significant weight loss after surgery?
Achieving significant weight loss after surgery requires a combination of healthy habits and ongoing medical care.
What are typical weight loss outcomes after surgery?
Many patients lose 65-70% of their excess weight after weight loss surgery.
How are GLP-1 medications approached for weight loss?
GLP-1 medications work differently for every patient. A personalized evaluation considering medical history, metabolism, goals, and lifestyle is used to determine if they are the right option and to build a suitable treatment plan.
Does the practice offer consultations?
Yes, consultations are offered to help patients learn about their treatment options.
What is the philosophy and mechanism behind weight loss surgery at this practice?
Weight loss surgery is considered more than just a medical procedure designed to reduce stomach size. It helps regulate hunger hormones, improve insulin resistance, and supports long-term metabolic health. For qualified patients, it can be an effective tool, and when combined with nutrition, movement, and ongoing medical support, it can help achieve lasting results and improve overall health.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

$2,195

Payments

20

Compared to peers

Moderate

Dr. Eric Harris received $2,195 across 20 payments in 2024. That is higher than about 71% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as travel and lodging, and the largest single payer was Medtronic, Inc..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
