I had a RNY in 2003 in Atlanta, GA. I have lost more than 200lbs, more than 1/2 my highest weight. I am now iving in Pittsburgh. I need a follow up surgeon and want to find a good support group in Pittsburgh. Can you help me?
Thanks,
Curtis

 Well, aren't you lucky to move to Steeler nation!  Welcome!
I had my surgery at St. Margaret's in Pgh. My surgeon is THE best. Her name is LeeAnne Peluso with Pgh. Bariatrics.  I like her and the hospital is easy to get to. There is also a support group there (I think the first Wed. of the month).
Magee Women's hospital also has a good bariatric program (you don't have to be a woman to go there!) with support groups.
I live outside the city about 1 1/2  hours so I do not go in for the groups. I think there are others going on. You would love Dr. Peluso!
Welcome to Pgh. and congrats on your weight loss.

 I am from Pgh. I just had my surgery and I went thru Magee Womens hospital. THey are wonderful there. The whole staff is great. And like someone else stated you do not need to be a women to go there. 

They also have group meetings the 2nd tuesday of every month I believe. 

Hello! Welcome to Pittsburgh! I am still pre-op but i LOVE my doctor and his whole staff. Dr. Gagne through West Penn Hospital (they also have a satellite office at AGH). They also run support groups through their office. I know 2-3 other people on this forum have had surgery with him and post pretty frequently. Enjoy the city- hopefully we'll convert you to a Steeler or Pens fan!!
