| Introducing OA To Healthcare Professionals |
Do you have patients whose weight, body image, food attitudes or behaviors cause health problems? Overeaters Anonymous does not concern itself with the medical aspects of obesity, but with the nature of compulsive overeating. The OA program can enhance, not replace medical care or any other existing treatment programs.
OA speakers are available to attend health classes in schools, health fairs or any facilities where the community can benefit from our experience, strength and hope in the OA program. We can share our own recovery story, as well as supply the necessary literature needed.
Please send us an email @ suffolkoa@aol.com if you would like to request a speaker, or contact Suffolk County Intergroup at 631-475-5965.
