Emory midtown and dr is Srinivasan. She great. I think all the emory locations are connected and soon the whole bariactrics dept will be at the midtown location... I'm not for sure though

I was sleeved at Emory midtown as well with Dr. Davis - I'm sooo looking forward to everything being in one spot - i haven't been to one of the support sessions yet - but am planning on it in March - hope to see you there!!

I'm going to try and make it. I haven't been to a support group yet either.. but I am curious to go and meet different people.
