Anyone in the Greenwood or Anderson area??

If so, do you know of any support groups? I'm almost dead center of Anderson and Greenwood and that would be a lot more convenient for me, as opposed to driving to Spartanburg all the time.

We have a support group at Dr Bour's but it's for his patients only.  I live in Laurens and my sis lives in Waterloo near Greenwood,  I wish we had a support group out side of Dr B to go to too.....Good Luck finding one and if you do post it so we can go too....

Well, if we knew enough people, we could start a support group of our own. I'm not far from Laurens, either.

I think this is worth checking into..I know me and my sis both a a few people from Greenwood....Maybe we can start a Piedmont group on here and see how many people would be interested in starting a group....

Well I have a friend in Greenwood who is going to have the procedure done soon as well, so yeah, I'd say this is definitely worth checking into.

I live at Lake Greenwood on the Waterloo Side and I am having the procedure done March the 6th and would love a support group near me because I have to go to Columbia right now. I have a friend that had it done through the same group that I am going to and she probably would like a support group close to home too.
 Maybe if enough people are interested in our area we could get one started.

Well, there was a guy that had the surgery done the day after I did, who doesn't live far from me. He and his wife said they'd love to find one closer, as well. So if everyone here is serious about it, I'll talk to Dr. Ross' office soon and ask what we need to do to get one started.

Hey Kym

Dr Strickland was my doctor too.  I thought he was great.

Hey  my sisters live a****erloo...on the Lake too....Rachel lives near Harrison's Landing on Brownlee Drive and so does Teresa....  Teresa had RNY right before I did....Her Surgery Anniversary is coming up on March 3=4    A local group would be good.

I would be very intrested in this idea. I live in Greenwood but go to school full time and am never able to make the meetings at Dr. Bours. And I feel as though I really need some kind of support group.
