Hello! My name is Patricia Drew. I am an Associate Professor in Human Development at California State University, East Bay. I am studying men and women who had weight loss surgery 3+ years ago.

I am hoping to learn about patients' long-term social and personal outcomes; I am also very interested to learn about how WLS patients discuss weight and body size with their children.

I am looking for people to interview. The interview should be around 30 - 45 minutes, and can occur:

  • on the telephone
  • in-person (if you live in the SF Bay Area)
  • via email

If you are a previous weight loss surgery patient and are interested in participating in my study, please contact me at [email protected], or you can reply to this post & I will contact you.

You can also learn more at my website: https://sites.google.com/csueastbay.edu/wls-research

Many thanks!
