About

Support groups are an integral part of our post-weight loss surgery program. They can provide ongoing education and guidance for patients who have had gastric bypass surgery or gastric banding with the LAP-BAND® System or the REALIZE™ Adjustable Gastric Band. Although groups are primarily intended for people who have already had weight loss surgery at our practice, we welcome patients who received treatment at other centers. If you are considering weight loss surgery, we also encourage you to attend a session and meet with patients who have undergone the procedure. Support groups are an invaluable way to gain comfort and strength as you hear other people share experiences that are similar to yours.

Our support groups allow patients to get to know each other, but they are also a great source of information. Each session is structured and run by one of our friendly, experienced team members. We also have nutritionists and other clinical professionals present who will lead discussions and answer any questions you have.  The groups are a source of inspiration for our patients, who leave each session with renewed determination and new ideas for maintaining weight loss.
