Hey everyone. I live near Woodbridge NJ. I am looking for some meetings to go to for VSG patients! If you have an information, I would LOVE to hear it! Thanks


My surgeon has meetings every month but they are 90 mins away. I was looking to join a group more local. Thanks again

I am a patient of the AWESOME Dr Neff too.  Did you see Kennedy is having meetings in Voorhees now?  Still far but closer for you.

I know its a hike for you, but FYI we are having an OH meet and greet at National Mechanics Karaoke Bar in Phila, PA  Saturday March 10th at 8pm. You are welcome to come and mingle!!  the more the merrier, and bring anyone you want 21+ if you are interested.

Think about it and mark your calendar. Details to follow.

 Hi fellow NJ ladies! I am in Northwest NJ (Sussex County) and have not been able to find a group either. My surgeon has several groups, but most are for lap band and RNY. There is one for RNY and VSG, but they said they dont get many VSG pts at the groups so I have not gone. Would also love to find someone or some group close to me - in case anyone else from NJ chimes in here.
 
Wonder if we could start a small group for NJ and meet somewhere in between - I would be willing to drive an hour to meet people. Any interest?

 Maybe Morristown or Chester area if there are enough people within an hour of those places?

My sister goes to a group every Wednesday in Pompton Plains right on Rt 23.   I can get more details if you'd like.  Also my surgeons office in Ridgewood has a sleeve support group the first Monday of every month.  I have not gone yet... it seems to always conflict with something my kids need to do and my husband was working nights.   If you find something let me know.   Could use more local support.    These boards are amazing but meeting some fellow sleever in person would be great.

 I would love any info you have on support groups. Pompton Plains is OK for me - is it just for sleeves? I would like to find a sleeve support group - the RNYs seem to have so many more issues that I cant relate to. Ridgewood is good too. Can you either post the info or send me a message?

I am in NJ and interested too. Support groups with different surgeries are helpful but I really want to meet and talk with people who are sleeved.
I was surprised to see so few sleeves given that this surgery is becoming more and more popular.
