Carl: LAP-BAND Surgery

I got my lap band on Sept. 9 2011 after my cardiologist told me that I was going to have serious heart problems over and above the problems that I have already dealt with. At the time I was 319 lbs. with high blood pressure, high cholesterol, asthma and borderline diabetes.

Dr. Bagnato did a wonderful job!! No pain at all after surgery. Everyone in his office was a true professional and made me feel so comfortable.

I am now 206 lbs. with more energy than I know what to do with. I have been taken off of most of my cholesterol and blood pressure meds and have not had an episode of asthma the entire year.

I truly feel better today than I did when I was 25-30 years old. I am now extremely active in scuba diving and exercising. I am a new person thanks to Dr. Bagnato and his wonderful staff!!

Thanks for everything Dr. Bagnato and staff.

    Great job! I know exactly how you feel. The day I had my surgery I told Dr. Bagnato “This is the first day of the rest of my life.” That was definitely an accurate statement. I feel so good after losing 80 lbs with more energy, better outlook on life and just feel wonderful. My surgery was 8/15/11. Keep up the good work. Dr. Bagnato and his staff at the BEST!!!!!
