Surgical Weight Loss
Support Groups
Choosing to have
bariatric surgery may be among the most
important health decisions you'll make in
your lifetime. Getting to know other people
who share experiences similar to yours can
contribute a great deal to your long-term
success.
Whether you are contemplating
surgical weight loss, or have already had
surgery, we have a support group to meet
your needs. We welcome patients of any
surgeon or hospital. Participants share
experiences and answer each others’
questions in a safe, non-judgmental
atmosphere.
Health professionals, including
behaviorists, dietitians, physicians and
physical therapists, attend these meetings
on a rotating basis to offer guidance and
up-to-date information.
