Our care doesn’t end when you leave the operating room. We’re there through recovery and beyond to help you make the most of your new life.
Support Groups Weight loss surgery is only the first step. Lifestyle changes are the next step and will be an ongoing effort in reaching your weight loss goals. To help you accomplish these goals, Sebastian River Medical Center’s Surgical Weight Loss Program offers ongoing support and we encourage you to attend our free meetings. Our monthly Support Group meets the fourth Tuesday of every month at 6:00pm. Dr. Williams is the group facilitator and the group meets at Sebastian River Medical Center in the Dining room (adjacent to the Cafeteria). If you are thinking about having weight loss surgery and want to talk directly with other people that have already undergone bariatric surgery, please attend our monthly support group. This is a great way to meet other people and learn about their experience firsthand.
Follow-up and After Care Fresh start. Many aspects of your health will improve after surgery, but it doesn’t happen magically. It is important to be committed to following a new and improved post-operative lifestyle, including being proactive in dealing with potential risks and discomforts associated with surgery.
