Support Groups/Dr. Crum
As those of us who have had gastric bypass with Dr. Crum know, support groups are an integral part of our recovery. Not only do we have a chance to talk with our peers and share our concerns with people who are in the same situation, but we also can help guide new and prospective patients through the process. Think how much someone would benefit from the perspective that you could offer.
New patient meetings are held on the first Wednesday of every month at 6 p.m. in Perkins Auditorium of Norwalk Hospital; the next meetings are on Feb. 4th, March 3rd, April 7th and May 5th. Because we are trying to arrange for mentors to help guide the prospective and new patients, we need as many experienced post-operative patients to attend these meetings as possible.
A support group for Dr. Crum's patients who are less than 6 months post-operatively are held on the third Wednesday of every month at 6 p.m. In Perkins Auditorium of Norwalk Hospital; the next meetings are on Feb. 18th, March 17th, April 21st and May 19th.
