One of the best resources we have available to our patients is our monthly support group. Our support groups are comprised of pre-surgery and post-surgery patients. In addition, some people opt to bring a support person from the outside to learn how they can better support them.

Prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, we had several people that would attend support group regularly. Unfortunately, we had to stop in-person group at the start of the pandemic. However, we are now in-person in the SC Obesity Center lobby and we encourage you to come join us. Each support group is also streamed online the first Tuesday of every month from 6-7pm and then it is published so that anyone can access it at any time.

We are so thankful that we can stream it for those that are not able to attend in person. However, if you are able, I would highly encourage that you check out an in-person support group and see what it is all about. You can expect our nurse coordinator, social worker, and dietitians to be there leading the group. If you are curious, check it out online and see if you would like to attend. Remember that everyone is welcome—no matter where you are on your journey!
