Bariatric Virtual Support Groups

Bariatric Support Groups

Our Bariatric Surgery program hosts virtual support group sessions on the first Wednesday of each month for bariatric surgery patients and candidates – past, present, and future.

Virtual Support Groups

Our Virtual Support Group Sessions include multiple topics and are aimed at both patients interested in bariatric surgery and those who have already undergone surgery. The Virtual Support Groups cover the following:

1. Exercise 101: Get exercise guidance you can trust from UI Health physical therapist Rich Severin.
2. Bariatric Topic of the Month: Hear from different members of our Bariatric Surgery team – including dietitians, bariatricians, physical therapists, psychologists, and plastic surgeons – who will focus on a new aspect of our care each month.
3. Bariatric surgeons: Hear from UI Health surgeons about the variety of treatment options offered by our Bariatric Surgery Program, the health risks of obesity, and how our team can help guide you through your weight loss journey.
