Meet Gary

My name is Gary and I first visited Dr. Minkin at St. Louis Lap-Band Specialists back in late 2007. I then had my surgery in February 2008. At surgery I weighed 325 pounds and now I am a healthy 216 pounds.

"I had trouble walking before and now I can even run. I can do things I never thought I'd do again. It's a whole new life for me!"
