Classes

Bariatric and Orthopedic Seminars

Warren County Learning Center hosts seminars to educate the community regarding their bariatric and orthopedic procedures, and St. Vincent Williamsport Hospital is a sponsor of these community outreach events.

Bariatric

Because of the obesity crisis in Indiana, bariatric surgery has been an important tool in the physician arsenal  to help patients lead healthy, productive lives. St. Vincent Williamsport staff provide educational materials and expertise in explaining bariatric surgery options and the important issues that must be considered in matching individual patients with the most appropriate option. A monthly support group provides ongoing education and support for pre and post bariatric surgery patients. 

Orthopedic

The orthopedic seminar, conducted by a St.Vincent orthopedist, provides education on common orthopedic injuries, such as knee and wrist fractures, rotator cuff injuries and carpal tunnel syndrome, and the options for therapy, repair and prevention.
