OH2015 Q&A Panel with Post-Op Grads
May 11, 2015Do you have a question about post-op life? We have answers!
Join us on Friday, October 16th at the ObesityHelp National Conference for Q&A with the #OH2015 Post-Op Grads. The Panelists have a range of experiences with the surgical procedures of RNY, DS, VSG, Lap-Band and Revision. This will be an interactive session where the Grad panelists will answer your questions based on their personal journey experiences. To ask a question, you will step-up to our audience microphones and ask your question to the panelist that you would like to answer it. The moderator and conference staff will help keep the Q&A moving, so that we can try and get in as many questions as possible during the allotted time.
