Hear From One of Our Patients

Lori has battled with her weight for as long as she can remember. She would lose weight but then gain it back and then some. Her blood pressure was high, she had sleep apnea and was pre-diabetic. She made the decision to have gastric bypass surgery after her children told her they didn’t want to lose her.
