Bariatric means "weight loss." A "bariatric practice" is a medical practice that specializes in weight loss. A "bariatric group" might be a group of bariatric surgeons or a group of post-surgical patients. It's hard to say. Any bariatric surgical practice worth its salt has a schedule of support groups, meetings, consulting professionals, a psychologist and/or social worker, RNs and a nutritionist. If you are looking for a bariatric surgeon, get some names from the hospital's physician referral service. Call around and find out which practices offer a free, information seminar, then attend it to learn about the options and to ask questions. Find what kind of post-op support is available and don't work with a group that doesn't have any.

A bariatric diet is a diet, usually coupled with bariatric surgery. Bariatric diets are very healthly and in very small portions. This is because bariatric surgery staples off part of the stomach to make it smaller, therefore requiring smaller meals.
