ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTORS IN SUCCEEDING WITH YOUR WEIGHT LOSS IS YOUR SUPPORT NETWORK.

Having a great support network made up of family, friends, and fellow patients will increase your chance for successful weight loss and especially for keeping it off. Studies show over and over that patients who attend support groups after surgery do better. At Anchorage Bariatrics, we do our best to make sure you get the support you need to succeed. We have dedicated support groups for our patients that are also open to the public for anyone to attend. They are always free.

ALWAYS FREE, EVERYBODY WELCOME!

Bariatric Support Group

Our Bariatric Support Group meetings are open to the public and anyone from the bariatric community is welcome to attend. They are held on the first Wednesday of each month, in the Willow Room at Providence Hospital from 5:30-6:30 PM. The Willow Room is located adjacent to the cafeteria at Providence Hospital, on the bottom floor.
