Surgery Education and Support

Making the decision to have surgery is a big one. We understand that as you learn about your condition and treatment options, it can feel overwhelming. Our surgical care team is ready with the resources you need to empower your health. Our goal is to support you physically and emotionally every step of the way.

Surgery Support Groups and Classes

We offer support groups and classes so you can talk about your experience with people who have the same condition or the same questions about surgery. 

Many Banner Health locations offer resources for conditions and treatments such as:

• Bariatric surgery 
• Cancer 
• Heart care 
• Laryngectomy, or removal of the larynx (voice box)
• Organ transplant
• Ostomy, an opening created surgically somewhere on the body to help get rid of stool or urine

Find the support group that’s right for you.

Talk to your surgery team to learn more about additional education materials and support group information for you and your loved ones.
