Before we determine if you are a good candidate for bariatric surgery, it's important that you understand the surgical process, the risks and the personal responsibilities that come before and after surgery. To learn more about these components, we invite you to join us for a free information session.

Our in-person sessions are held monthly at Martha Morehouse Medical Pavilion auditorium, 2050 Kenny Road, Columbus, OH 43221. Parking is free.
