Pre-Bariatric Surgery Group

If you're contemplating weight loss surgery, this group might be beneficial. A pre-surgical bariatric psychological evaluation is usually required by your surgeon and your insurance company. Most surgeons recognize that weight loss surgery is NOT ONLY A MEDICAL ISSUE, but also a life-changing event. This group focuses on the emotionally readiness for surgery; ensuring adequate social support and learning more about life-style changes after surgery. You will benefit from guidance regarding the emotional impact of surgery and changes to expect.
