As part of Weight Loss Surgery Center's ongoing commitment to long-term health, we ask our patients and encourage our potential patients to attend support groups. These structured group meetings offer the opportunity to interact with other individuals who have had, or who are considering having, gastric bypass surgery.
Conducted by a facilitator, each meeting focuses on topics pertinent to individuals who have undergone surgical treatment for morbid obesity. The topics can range from nutrition, diet and exercise, to coping in social situations that involve food, and follow-up health issues.
Support Group Meetings:
Woman’s Wellness Center
at the corner of Jefferson Hwy and Bluebonnet
6:00 pm - 7 pm
Dr. Elizabeth Clubb, Plastic Surgeon from Baton Rouge will be our guest speaker at Support Group on Wednesday, April 30.
A licensed clinical social worker from Jefferson Oaks Behavioral Health will be at support group first Wednesday of every month.
The nutritionist from St. Elizabeth's Hospital, Linda Braud, RD, will be the speaker second Wednesday of every month.
On the third Wednesday of each month, a physical therapist/personal trainer/exercise specialist will be the speaker at Support Group.
Fourth Wednesday, Sue will continue to speak and as of yet, fifth Wednesday's are still open.
One of our very successful patients has volunteered to research and present weekly VITAMIN INFORMATION, which we all can benefit from.
