Kadie: LAP-BAND Surgery

LAP-BAND Surgery: October 2007

I would like to start off by saying that having the lap band is the BEST thing I have ever done. As a young person I was always overweight, unable to trade clothes with friends and I had to shop at plus size stores. I had become comfortable with how I looked. However, after I had my children I decided that it was time for a change.

I had heard about the lap band procedure, attended one of Dr. Bagnato’s seminars and when I left I knew that this was what I wanted to do. I went home, told my husband and in October I had surgery.

I love the new me! Now I have the energy to play with my children. People that I have not seen in a long time don’t recognize me! Dr. Bagnato, his staff, and the Bariatric Institute were such great help. I would recommend this surgery to anyone.
