Thank You for Joining Us!
The TREO Foundation’s annual LEAD Awards & Starlight Star Night Gala, held alongside the 2025 ASMBS Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C., was an unforgettable celebration of excellence in metabolic and bariatric surgery.
We extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who attended and to our incredible sponsors for making this evening possible. Your support helps us continue our mission to advance treatment, research, and education in the fight against obesity.
Congratulations to all of the LEAD Award recipients and nominees — your leadership, achievements, and dedication are an inspiration to the entire community.
