Bariatric Support Group

Experience the Power of Community Support

At Southern Surgical, we’re dedicated to supporting you every step of the way on your weight loss journey. Recognizing the importance of community and shared experiences, we offer monthly Bariatric Support Group at our Greenville location, specifically designed for individuals navigating the bariatric lifestyle.

Why Our Support Groups Matter?

  • Exclusive Themes: Each session focuses on crucial topics like Protein & Volume Intake, Bariatric Vitamins, and more, guiding you through various aspects of post-surgery life.
  • Accessibility: Can’t make it in person? Join us via Facebook Live and stay connected with our supportive community from anywhere.
  • Expertly Hosted: Led by our Bariatric Customer Care Representative, Laura Smith, and the dedicated Southern Surgical Staff, ensuring professional guidance and support.
  • Invaluable Support System: Embrace the power of a supportive community, vital for navigating the lifestyle changes that come with weight loss surgery.

Who Can Benefit?

Our support groups are designed to be inclusive, welcoming everyone connected to the bariatric journey. Whether you are considering surgery, currently in the process, recovering post-surgery, or a friend or family member looking to understand more about bariatric care, our doors are open to you. However, due to space constraints, we request that children do not accompany attendees. This policy helps us ensure a focused and supportive environment for all participants.

Scheduled Themes and Dates

Our Support Group meets on the second Monday of each month, offering a structured schedule with varied themes to address all your concerns and curiosities about living a bariatric lifestyle. For specific dates and topics, please refer to our schedule listed below.
