ARIZONA SUPPORT GROUPS!!
No matter what area of the valley you live in, there's a support group near you!! All pre-ops and post-ops are welcome no matter who your surgeon was! These support groups should not REPLACE your surgeon's support group, but should compliment it. Also, if you know of other GENERAL WLS support groups (not dr affiliated), please let me know so I can add it to my list!
