Weight loss surgery support group 3rd meeting

This news item was added on 1st July 2007

Following the success of our first two meetings, BMI The Alexandra Hospital has pleasure to announce our third weight loss surgery 'support group' meeting to be held on Wednesday 25 July 2007 at The Alexandra Hospital, Cheadle.

The aim of this meeting is to inform patients, patients considering weight loss surgery and their friends, family and partners, about gastric banding and gastric bypass operations to help combat obesity.

The evening will offer the opportunity for patients to meet, discuss and feel confident with The Alexandra Hospitals experienced bariatric surgeons and the high standard of care provided by the UK’s leading private hospital group, BMI Healthcare.

The Alexandra Hospital only works with 'gold standard' Bariatric (Obesity) surgeons who are specialists in upper gut and stomach using laparoscopic (keyhole) techniques. They are experienced at working in the NHS and are members of The British Obesity Surgery Society (BOSS).

And because we see surgery as just part of the process, we offer a comprehensive aftercare programme to help our patients stay healthy and achieve the best results. Our consultants offer personal ongoing care and support from a team of specialists before, during and long after surgery.
