Question:
Does anyone know of a support group in the San Joaquin Valley, California?

I thought someone told me of one in Modesto, CA, but I lost the information while having computer problems. Also is anyone interested in starting a Support Group in the Merced,Atwater, CA area?    — LORI G. (posted on October 18, 2001)

yes, I just got an email they started one this month at the Perkos in Tracy. I don't recall the name of the people that started it, I think Jeff and Debbra? I forgot the last name but they both have gone through bariatric surgery. Good luck finding one.

There is a support group for people in the stockton area. The last Wed. of the month at the Lion's Den restaraunt in Linden @ 7pm. Hosted by Eileen Brown who had surgery by Dr. Rabkin in SF but also is incharge of the support group for Dr. Rabkin and Zahriya from Delano.
