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.
