Weight Loss Surgery Support Group

The Weight Loss Surgery Support Group provides valuable information to those who have had or are thinking of having weight loss surgery. These sessions, led by a registered dietitian, provide a casual and relaxed atmosphere and offer emotional support, empower participants with an increased knowledge base and focus on the continuing weight loss success of our gastric bypass, gastric sleeve and lap band patients.

These sessions also provide an opportunity for preoperative patients to have their questions answered and speak with other patients who have been through weight loss surgery.

Registration is not required, and sessions are open to the public.

The group meets on the first Thursday of each month from 6:30 p.m.-8 p.m.

Location: Hylton Education Center* (Garden level), Room C at Sentara Northern Virginia Medical Center, 2300 Opitz Blvd., Woodbridge, VA 22191.

*Enter the hospital campus using the entrance at River Rock Way and park in the visitor's lot outside of the Hylton Education Center.
