Pre-op and Post-op Support Team

We believe surgery alone isn’t the answer to weight issues. Strong pre and post-surgical support is equally important for long-term success.

For this purpose, our online bariatric groups guide you with nutrition, lifestyle advice, and motivation for the weight loss journey.

You can connect with hundreds of past clients in our support groups.
