Southern Oregon Bariatric Center

Your Support Group

Our support group provides weight loss surgery patients an excellent opportunity to discuss their various personal and professional issues. Patients help other patients adjust to the surgery and their new and healthier lifestyles. Our support group is made up of caring, friendly and fun people who will help in any way possible. They work diligently to provide you with the tools you need to succeed, once and for all, at achieving and maintaining your weight-loss goals. Many of us have never been able to talk about the hardships we deal with every day regarding our weight. This group knows and relates to these hardships and can offer support, sympathy and encouragement to find solutions. We can offer each other a lot of strength, something to help us stand strong while we change the course of our lives, take control and begin a new life full of hope, health and happiness.

Our support groups are professionally staffed by our health educator, certified fitness instructor, bariatric nurse practitioner and bariatric dietician. Guest speakers will attend over time based upon the needs expressed by group members. See our calendar below for a  list of bariatric support groups currently available.
