The Unity Hospital Bariatric and Weight Loss Center sponsors free support groups for individuals who have had or are considering weight loss surgery. Led by former gastric bypass patients, Images Support Groups provide a forum to explore issues connected with our surgery and weight loss. We support one another in our new lifestyle choices and share the challenges and joys that accompany this journey. Research has demonstrated that patients who regularly attend support groups tend to achieve greater weight loss.
Spouses, partners and other adult support persons are welcome to attend. No pre-registration required.
