PATIENT SUPPORT GROUPS

We strongly recommend support group attendance for a minimum of 3 occasions during the first 6 months after your operation.  In fact, it is not uncommon to find patients who are several years post-op attending them.  Significant others and friends are welcome.  No small children please, as a courtesy to the others.
