Visiting dietitian from Australia

[Guest guest]

Hieveryone, My name is Nazy and I work in Sydney Australia. As youmay know, there are only few bariatric surgeons who perform the RYGBP inAustralia. I am probably the only dietitian that sees these patients andsometimes feel that I need more support. Therefore I am applying for a scholarship this year withthe aim to visit 2-3 centresin the US and Canada and also hope toattend some related conferences. This will probably be any time afterSeptember/October 2008.

I have already contacted few dietitians and receivedgreat information regarding ASBS conferences but thought I might be able toreceive more information by writing to this group.

So could anyone please help me with:

Details of conferences (that you have found beneficial) that I shouldattend in 2008Contact details of established bariatric centres that will be happy tohave me visit Much appreciated KindRegards Nazy
