Guest guest Posted December 10, 2000 Report Share Posted December 10, 2000 Pam, The support group for Dr. Burchard is the first friday of every month. That would make the next meeting Jan. 5. The meeting in Dec was the 1st but I did not get to attend this one. I am hoping to go to the January meeting if the weather is good.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2000 Report Share Posted December 11, 2000 , Dr. Burchard worls out of Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center out of Lebanon. He is a really good surgeon although his bedside manner has a few bugs. I was operated on 7/21 by him and have had no complaints. The only problem with his program is that it can take almost a year to get surgery. You HAVE to go to 4 support group meetings, lose 15 pounds, see someone in endocrin and see the nutritionist before they will schedule surgery.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2000 Report Share Posted December 11, 2000 Pam, would you post to the group when you find about about Burchard's meetings? I'd be interested in giving it a try also. Lori Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2000 Report Share Posted December 11, 2000 Pam, I live in Berlin which 2 1/2 hrs away from Lebanon but its where I had my surgery. The meetings though are run a little different than what you are use to. They run from 1 pm to 3 pm. The first hour is an open meeting for both pre and post ops. The second hour is for post ops only to talk. I like the way they do it becaue it allows us to voice concerns that we may not want to voice in front of 80 people. Me going to the Jan meeting relies a lot on the weather. My mom won't drive if its too bad and thats who takes me down. I don't have my license and depend on others to do the driving. I will know more that week. I would love to meet you. Lea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
