support

I am looking for a support group north/west of Boston. My own group meets on Tuesday and I can't seem to be able to get there due to family obligations. I am willing to travel somewhat. I work in Dorchester and live in Lowell. My own commute is long, but I will do what ever it takes. Other than Tuesday's I am pretty open. thanks for any 411. donna

Hi Donna, I got my band surgery at the Faulkner Hospital in Jamaica Plain. I am not sure if they will take someone who did not get the surgery done at their facility but it is worth a try. Their phone # is 617-983-4770 it is Dr Munn's office. Let me know if you have anymore questions Sarah :-D

Hi Donna Dr. Randall is having his next support group on Thursday, November 16th from 6:30-8:00 at Lawrence Memorial Hospital in Medford, Ma. I think this is open to anyone. This support meeting is for people who had the bypass or is interested in it. I know he meets with lapband patients on some other night. I am not sure what kind of surgery you had or want to have. Good Luck! Janet

Hi Donna, I'm going to be starting the program with Dr. Hess at Quincy Medical Ctr the 2nd Monday of each month starting in November. I'm not sure just yet where they meet in the hospital, but you can call for more info. Dr. Hess' number there is 617-773-6100. Marie
