Prime Surgicare recognizes the importance of the bariatric patient’s emotional and clinical support needs:
We offer two free monthly support groups (one in person and one online) for Prime Surgicare bariatric patients and their loved ones.
Lauren Carey, RDS, CLT, and our bariatric dietitian team facilitate the group, supported by our board-certified bariatric surgeon, Dr. Seun Sowemimo. This group is a safe place to share feelings, ask clinical and personal questions, seek advice and receive encouragement and support from like-minded members.
Meetings focus on learning new relationships with food and introducing or rebuilding an exercise and fitness strategy, which goes hand-in-hand with the fastest and most effective path to long-term weight loss. A typical support session begins with a presentation and discussion on a relevant topic. Time is saved at the end of every meeting for patients to ask questions.
Whether you plan to or have already undergone a gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, lap banding or a revision surgery procedure, we hope you will be part of our friendly and welcoming Prime Surgicare family of clinicians and patients.
