Advanced Surgeons Pre-Op Bariatric Support Group

Key to Your Success

A Bariatric Support Group is a gathering designed for patients who are considering, undergoing, or have already had bariatric (weight-loss) surgery. These meetings provide a supportive environment where patients can share experiences, ask questions, and receive guidance related to weight loss surgery and the lifestyle changes that come with it. Our support groups are led by our Registered Dieticians: Janet Borra, Melissa Kessler, and Annette Cuevas.

** Participation in support groups is a requirement for pre-operative patients **

Meetings are held virtually via Zoom.
