SELF-PERCEPTIONS AND PHYSICAL WELL-BEING AMONG LAP BAND PATIENTS

Researchers from The University of Western Australia together with bariatric surgeon Dr Leon Cohen, urgently require participants for a research investigation looking at how perceptions of oneself change in terms of physical abilities and physical appearance after lap band surgery.

Participants will be asked to complete a series of short questionnaires before, during and after surgery.

For further information about the research or if you are interested in participating in the research, please contact the primary researcher Helen Cowan
