Life After Surgery
Our care doesn't end when you leave the operating room. We're there through recovery and beyond to help you make the most of your new life. Many aspects of your health will improve after surgery, but it doesn't happen magically. It is important to be committed to following a new and improved post-operative lifestyle, including being proactive in dealing with potential risks and discomforts associated with surgery.
Support Groups
Weight loss surgery is only the first step. Lifestyle changes are the next step and will be an ongoing effort in reaching your weight loss goals. To help you accomplish these goals, we offer ongoing support and encourage you to attend our free meetings. If you have had weight loss surgery or if you are thinking about having weight loss surgery and want to talk directly with other people that have already undergone bariatric surgery, please attend our monthly support group. This is a great way to meet other people and learn about their experiences firsthand.
Bariatric Support Group - The support group is held in-person on the first Thursday of the month (except the month of July) at 6 p.m. in the Graduate Medical Education Auditorium (formerly Conference Room A/B) on the main floor of Crestwood.
