Lap Band Surgery.
As I’ve mentioned before (some where around here!) my grand mother had gastric bypass surgery in the summer of 2006 (I think that’s when it was) and since then has lost close to 100 pounds - being a tad bit older than most that seem to be getting these types of surgeries done these days hasn’t allowed her to lose the weight as quick as some people seem too. She mentioned last week that her sister (my aunt) would be having a procedure called lap band surgery done in an attempt to help her in her weight loss journey after failing at many attempts on various diets; she was on Jenny Craig for awhile and it did nothing for her.
The great thing about lap band surgery is that it’s COMPLETELY reversible and requires only minimal incision and actual “surgery” thus shortening your stay in the hospital. Conroe Lap Band surgeon, Richard Collier is the foremost lap band surgeon in the cities of Woodlands, Houston and Kingwood, TX and provides a surgery that is performed laparoscopically on an outpatient basis; this means that if you go to Dr. Collier for your surgery in the morning, you’ll be discharged and sent home to rest in your OWN bed that same night which makes for a more relaxed and comfortable recovery environment.
I’m not exactly sure when my aunt would be having her lap band surgery done (I believe it was some time this coming week), however, I am glad that she has found something that will help aid her to lose the weight she’s been struggling to lose and allow her to live a healthier, more productive life!
