What happens during a session?
The group is led by one of our team at Melbourne Weight Loss Surgery, however, this is a peer support group, meaning questions or challenges discussed are driven by the needs of the attendees.
The host is there to assist when required, however, you are encouraged to offer advice, tips and support from your own lived experience.
No one understands surgery better than others who have been through it all before!
