I was interested in going to a support group just to meet and greet ppl and see what everyone has to say. I was supposed to go to one at St. Vincents a while back but didnt get to go. Anyway the hospital where I had my surgery has held 1 meeting I think but I was at work...so Anyhow if you know of a meeting around the Anniston, Gadsden or Bham area let me know.

the ones at st.vincents east is the only ones i know about. thats where i go anyways. i will be there this saturday for my first meeting since my surgery. and i dont like talking in front of people either.

come on and visit.

New support meetings for Lap-band patients!

Dr. Britt and Dr. Groves will be providing monthly support meetings beginning this month. The meetings will alternate between Marshall Medical North in Guntersville and Marshall Medical South in Albertville. See the following link to view their calendar for dates and time.

Just a note for all those wishing to use Dr. Britt or Dr. Groves. They no longer have a Madison Office and will not be holding any more seminars in Huntsville/Madison. Their last 2 seminars only produced 3 attendees each. Seminars will now be held in Guntersville or Albertville.

With the high level of care and compassion these great doctors have for their patients, it is worth the drive to Guntersville or Albertville. Their aftercare and wonderful staff makes them the best choice in Alabama in my opinion. They are doing Lap-Band surgery 2-3 days a week now. They believe in the surgery and the need to provide great after care with follow up visits and fills (adjustments).
