Are there any support groups in the Northshore? I live in Andover, MA. I had my surgery in Aug 05 in VA and then moved up here. I really need a group to attend. Thanks in advance, Adrienne

Adrienne, Dr. Randall at Lawrence Memorial Hospital in Medford has one on usually the 3rd Thursday evening every month. I am the next exit down from you and it only takes me 20 minutes to get there. The meeting is great, you have to be there early because there's usually standing room only. Peridot

Adrienne call the weight management center at lowell general (which is close to you). The program moved from Saints Memorial but they have support groups on Tues nights - both for preop/postop combo (topics for discussion, more like a lecture with a answer/question at the end) and then once a month a post op only group divided by lap band or rny patients which are an open forum and excellent. I'm in Dracut.
