Step 2. Sign Up for an Info Session

After you select a location above, you will choose from 2 types of info sessions: an in-person seminar, or an interactive presentation.

The free info session will give you a chance to:

• Determine if you are candidate for weight loss surgery
• Learn what specific surgery best fits your weight loss goals

Step 3. Schedule a Consultation

Once you've attended a NewStart info session and have decided to proceed with surgery, the NewStart team will assist you with your insurance requirements and approval. We will also schedule your psychological evaluation and nutritional counseling session with one of our dietitians. You will then complete your pre-operative lab work and testing.

After your surgery, we will work with you on all follow-up treatment and support. We encourage you to attend our support groups not just after surgery, but also while you're going through the approval process.
