support group in Alabama

Hi everyone, I am sure that this question has been ask in the past but since most threads get so far off topic over time, I wanted to ask again. Does anyone know of any support groups that may be in any of the following areas, Jefferson Co, Walker Co, St. Clair Co, Anniston, Gadsden, or maybe even Shelby Co? I was banded with Advanced Surgeons but they have two meetings a month and and the day time meeting I am always at class and sometimes work on the evening meeting. I am looking for a couple of support groups that don't mind if someone banded by a different surgeon joins. I would also like to go to at least 2 meetings a month, so if anyone can provide me with a location I would really appreciate it. Good Luck to everyone!:blushing:

St. Vincent's East has an AWESOME support group. They only meet once a month though. Meetings are on the 3rd Saturday of every month at 10 am. Most of the patients were banded by Dr. Miles or Dr. Schmitt, but there are several participants that have been banded by other dr.s. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask!!
