Obesity Surgery Support Groups

For Recovering Patients

The primary goal of our support groups is to serve as a means for exchanging information and developing a communal support network among patients who have had similar types of surgery. Often, recovering patients find it easier to meet their new dietary challenges when they are comforted by others who are already achieving similar goals.

For Prospective Patients

Individuals who are considering gastric restrictive surgery as a possible solution for achieving long term weight loss are also encouraged to sit in on meetings. Many prospective patients have been reassured by speaking with someone who has previously undergone the surgery.

Several members of our support groups have volunteered to discuss their experiences by telephone with interested patients. Contact us for details.
