Support Groups

The widespread use of support groups has provided weight loss surgery patients an excellent opportunity to discuss their various personal and professional issues. Here at Saint Francis, in addition to the follow-up with our surgeon, our weight reduction program also offers psychological support, dietary and nutritional counseling and patient support groups.

Monthly support group meetings for preoperative and postoperative Bariatric weight loss surgery patients are held on the fourth Tuesday of the month from 6 to 7:30 p.m. starting March 25, 2008, in the Health Learning Center at Saint Francis Hospital and Medical Center.
