Hi Chris,
Welcome to the board and the New Haven area! I work at Yale, though I don't live in New Haven, and there are tons of resources around the campus for real estate and finding housing. I've got the name of a great real estate agent who works with the medical residents here at Yale - I'll email you seperately on that.
There is a LAP-BAND® support group that meets in New Haven - the surgeon's offices are at 60 Temple Street in New Haven - and the meetings are in the Fusco Auditorium on the lower level. Next dates are Wednesday, Nov 5th and Wednesday, Dec 3rd, and they start at 6 pm.
I believe the airlines DO fly into New Haven - the airport is Tweed New Haven...I don't know if it's a major hub, but it is a good sized airport. My hubby is a private pilot and it's one of the areas he flies around when he's flying his small plane because of the traffic.
Congrats on your loss and welcome to the Yale community!
