Norman Regional Health System

It’s crucial to have support and advice from others who are undergoing bariatric surgery. Ortho Central (Norman) provides a comprehensive weight loss support group in a safe, confidential environment. Meetings start with an educational topic and then break into open discussion. Weight loss support groups are held on the first and third Thursday of each month at noon and 7 p.m. The noon session is led by a registered dietitian from Norman Regional’s Ortho Central (Norman).

Due to COVID-19, all Support Groups are being held via Facebook Live on our No Excuses support group page. This will continue until further notice.
