I think Dr. Dennis Smith has some support groups that meet on Saturday in Marietta and someone recently posted about a support group that meets at Emory John's Creek on Saturdays also.
My groups meet about four times monthly but they are all in central DeKalb which might be farther than you want to travel. However, they meet at 7:30 after the crunch.

As well the staff is VERY difficult to deal with even after the initial run around I received before I even had the surgery. Having the surgery was about my health, but it is ashame that so much money is put into your surgery, yet you are treated so unkind.
In MY opinion that is not good good customer service (which should come FIRST and farmost)!
I did NOTHING WRONG on my part to ruin my band, but if something is broke, fix it don't try to avoid the patient.
Word of mouth is the VERY BEST OR VERY WORST advertisement, and Titus Duncan's office needs to be aware of that.
Again, this was my experience, but hopefully noone else will have to endure what I have...I am STILL in the process of having the revision done, and hopefully @ some point I will find resolution so that I can use the tool (lapband) as it was designed for, as I have done in the past when it was working properly.
Thank for listening!
