Does anyone know of a support group in Ottawa, Canada area?

I am looking for a support group in Ottawa. I have not yet booked my surgery (am thinking of going to Mexico to get it done) and have lots of questions (finding a good surgeon, location, post-op support, etc.).

Hi diane..sorry i have not gotten back to you till now..life is busy busy getting ready for surgery in 5 weeks...there isnt much to tell regarding how i went about picking a surgeon... i kind of just went 123 your it!! Well not quite like that...i went over to the Mexico forum and read lots of threads to see what doctor was popular...then i googled the name of the surgeons in order to find out wuat company they are through...then i started shopping for the cheapest price package..when i found the price package and the company...i then emailed the company and asked lots of questions and waited to hear back..its not as complicated as it seems..there are a lot of people who work with the different companies and they tend to get back to you with info right away..
