Bellasarrah 9 Posted July 1, 2010 I am in the pre pre stages of lap band I have to see my regular physcian and I am sure that she will say yes to the procdure and a week later I see Dr.Artuso for my first consultation. And I am looking for anyone who is willing to answer my questions as I have many. I have ordered a book that I am sure will help me. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
khrazyluv 0 Posted July 21, 2010 I'm in Poughkeepsie....in the beginning stages again. I'm having a tough time finding support groups in the area, do you know of any up there? I went to my seminar in Westchester, I believe the doctors down there are more experienced in bariatric surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MellioM 116 Posted December 30, 2011 Saint Francis offers monthly support groups. Call the hospital and ask for nancy case - nutritionist that does the group. You could also ask for dr Artuso's office for the next meeting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
