Clarion North Support Group???

When do they have support group next? Lapband patient here... Love to go to a support group with someone before choosing a new surgeon.. I don't know who to pick!!!
Thanks, Sandi

I believe the support groups are on the 3rd Tuesday of the month.  But if you go on the web site you will see the calender.  Don't forget they changed offices too.  I had bypass so can't help with the Lap band but I had Dr. Selzer and I really liked him he isn't too touchy feely but is a very good Doctor he came and saw me twice in the hospital to check on me and was very nice.  I don't know if that helps.

On the left hand side of the page is the list of meetings.

Dr. Mattar did my surgery and I can't imaging having anyone else.  His bedside manner is incredible and I've felt so comfortable with him thru this entire journey.  He's kind, soft spoken, but so proficient.  Everywhere I went on surgery day when asked who my doctor was, I'd say "Dr. Mattar" and people would tell me the most amazing things about him. 

The only other doctor I know is Dr. Selzer (he frequently has patients on the floor where I work and he returned one of my phone calls after surgery) and he's nice.  I agree that he's not "touchy feely" but he's good at what he does.

Good luck choosing a doctor-it's certainly not an easy decision!
