This support group is for all patients who have either completed a surgical weight loss procedure, or are considering having one. If you are in the process of deciding whether or not to go forward with a weight loss surgery, please join us in a no-pressure, relaxed environment to learn and share, or just observe. We will not make you say a single word if you do not want to!
2016 Support Group Dates:
Our weight loss surgery support group meets every last Wednesday of the month from 6-8 pm at Surgical Arts of the Inland Empire.
One of our patients, Kym Hoffman, is the leader of the group. Read about Kym's weight loss journey.
