"These meetings provide an opportunity for patients, and those awaiting surgery, to work through the weight loss surgery journey," says Dr. Fobi. He will be discussing the medical, nutritional and social ramifications of weight loss surgery. Specifically, Dr. Fobi will be emphasizing the fact that surgery is a tool that must be used by the patient in a multi-disciplinary team approach setting to effect weight loss and weight loss maintenance.  A pioneer and acknowledged leader in his area of specialty, Dr. Fobi has been Medical Director of the Center for Surgical Treatment of Obesity for 25 years. During that time he has made numerous contributions to the technological advances of weight loss surgery, including developing the Fobi Pouch Gastric Bypass for Obesity. His work represents the last hope for many people who have waged a life long battle with fat, and he has personally helped thousands of patients, lose weight, reclaim their health and improve the quality of their lives. Dr. Fobi who performs the surgeries at Cedars Sinai in Los Angeles and Tri City Regional Medical Center in Hawaiian Gardens, CA, recently opened a new clinic, the Center for Surgical Treatment of Obesity, Lancaster, on the campus of Lancaster Community Hospital. People who have had or are considering weight-loss surgery are invited to attend the weight-loss surgery support group sponsored by Lancaster Community Hospital. The group started a little over a year ago and the response has been tremendous. "Attendance has grown dramatically because there are many people in our area that are committed to overcoming their obesity," says Donna Redmayne, PhD., the group facilitator at Lancaster Community Hospital.
