Dr Terry Simpson: Lap-Band Surgery Saved Her Life

I hadn’t seen her in a year – but the first thing she did was give me a hug and thanked me for saving her life.

“I just put the lap-band in you, you did the real work,” I said.

“No, doctor, you don’t understand.”

She had lost 110 pounds since she had the lapband surgery in Phoenix. Then, a year ago she felt a lump in her breast. It was cancer.

“I would have never felt that lump when I weighed 110 pounds more. That cancer would have grown and grown.”

Thankfully she is doing well now, the cancer removed, therapy done.  There are a lot of benefits of weight loss surgery, and sometimes weight loss surgery can  mean saving a life.
