You’re Not Alone
The goal of our LAP- BANDŽ Weight Loss Surgery Support Groups is to let you know that you’re not alone in your journey by providing a critical forum for patients to share their experiences, have questions answered, and gain encouragement from their peers.
 
Research shows that the morbidly obese are at risk of abeing more anxious, depressed and have lower self-esteem than an individual that is not obese. Therefore, LAP- BANDŽ Weight Loss Surgery is only one element that plays a key role in weight loss. Our support groups allow the patient to cope with the lifestyle changes that accompany their new bodies.

Who Should Attend Our Lap-Band Weight Loss Support Groups?
Our LAP- BANDŽ Weight Loss Patient Support Groups are geared towards patients who have already had obesity surgery, as well as prospective LAP- BANDŽ surgery patients . They provide a critical forum for patients to share experiences, have questions answered, and gain encouragement from their peers.
