Support Group
Atlantic General Bariatric Center offers a monthly support group. Angela
Simmons, our bariatric coordinator, moderates the sessions with Amy Gehrig
and Amanda Buckley, our dietitians.
Surgical Meetings
Support group meetings are always the
2nd and
4th
Wednesday each month
Time: 5:30 - 6:30 pm
Location: Conference Room at Atlantic General Bariatric Center
The first half of the meeting is educational and will alternate between
nutrition and fitness. These meetings are open to pre- and post-op patients.
Lots of stories are shared. Pre-op patients can gain insight on life after
the surgery. We highly encourage you to attend as many meetings as you can.
Non-Surgical Meetings
Support group meetings are held every week on Tuesday evenings
Time: Tuesdays from 5:00 - 5:30 pm
and Wednesdays from 12:00 - 12:30 pm
Location: Conference Room at Atlantic General Bariatric Center
These meetings are led by either our dietician or nurse practitioner. The topics alternate between nutrition, exercise, and behavioral subject matter. We encourage frequent attendance, as it helps patients have accountability to themselves and their program.
