Question:
support groups in Lancaster or surrounding areas?

Is there any support groups in Lancaster or surrounding areas? Or would anyone want to start one with me?    — Stephanie K. (posted on March 26, 2001)

I attend a support group the 1st Thursday of every month at Reading Hospital in Reading PA. 7PM. There are about 100 people in attendance, they usually have a guest speaker, and then different post op people talk about problems, experiences, etc.., then we break up into groups and talk about different topics. A lot of the people in attendance are patients of Dr. William Sweet, but I have met quite a few who have surgery elsewhere, but attend these support meetings. I have found them to be informative, with some very caring people in attendance. I am still pre-op, surgery scheduled for 4-19-01. Good Luck !! If you do decide to attend one, let me know, we could sit together :)

Hi! Please come to the Surgical Weight Loss Center Support Group. We meet the first Thursday of every month at Reading Hospital in the Education rooms (just ask at the front desk...they will point the way). This month we are having a "Drop your drawers" fashion show. This is where post-op patients wear their old clothes over their new ones and "strip" for everyone. It is a total blast! I also am the Angel Club coordinator so I am at every meeting. There is some great information to be shared at these meetings. I hope to see you there! luv,......

The Weight Loss Program at Hershey Med Center sponsors a support group the 3rd Wednesday of each month. You don't have to be in their program to attend. If you want more info feel free to email me.
