About Bariatric Support Australia

Bariatric Support Australia came to be, to support, uplift, come alongside and empower people that are deciding to have and have already had a surgical intervention to better their health and change the trajectory of their lives. From small beginnings, with nothing but their own personal experiences with a lifetime of living in bigger bodies, Damo and Tash, along with a dedicated team of administrators, committed to building community together. As Tash often says,


“Only those that have walked in our shoes, can fully appreciate, and understand the profound impact bariatric surgery can have on every aspect of our lives. We support, care, and offer kindness from our lived experience to the community that we love”


We are so glad that you are here, and we look forward to supporting you as you bravely navigate this chapter of your story.
