Patient Support Network

One of the most important keys to achieving success with bariatric surgery is having a strong support system. We recognize that individual patient experiences are invaluable resources that are beneficial for the whole group. The Bariatric Surgery Program is working to strengthen the patient community by providing as many forums for support and communication as possible. We have a monthly support group for pre- and postoperative patients. This is a wonderful opportunity to share your personal experience with others, and receive support from the Pennsylvania Hospital bariatric community.

  • Pre- and postoperative patients: last Tuesday of every month.
    - Free to all patients
    - Located in the main auditorium of the hospital on the first floor of Pennsylvania Hospital from 7-9pm
