Meeting groups
Hey - I'm pre-op but have been approved for surgery by Dr. Glazer just today! I've passed my other appt's (trio and first surgeon appt) and now I just need to see the surgeon again to get my opti and date! I'm just north of Newmarket (moved recently) but work in Newmarket 5 days a week and would love to get together with a support group! So there's 2 of us...anyone else? :)

FYI, in Barrie at the mall there is a group that meets every Wednesday and there is also a monthly group meeting in the Barrie area as well. I know it is not Newmarket but might work. I have not heard of any in the Newmarket area though. There is a York Region WLS facebook page but I am not sure if they put on meetings either.
York Region meetings ended in December, due to lack of participation.
