Tallgrass Surgical Weight Loss Solutions: Where Can I Learn More?

Informational Seminars
We host informational seminars for anyone who is interested in weight loss surgery options.  The seminars are held on the second Saturday of each month in the St. Francis Health Center second floor auditorium from 10:00 a.m. to Noon.  The Auditorium doors close promptly at 10:00 a.m., so please be sure to arrive early to sign in.

These seminars provide information on the history of obesity, treatment options, surgical procedure review and surgery complications, as well as additional time for questions from attendees.  At the end of the seminar, attendees receive a packet of informational tools and required documentation.  Potential patients must complete a patient questionnaire before a surgical consultation is scheduled.

Here are upcoming seminars:

January 9, 2010
