This past year as I was gathering family pictures for my youngest daughter's senior year in high school, I realized that I was not in many of the pictures because I had been too ashamed of my body. But not anymore! LAP-BAND surgery has given me back my health and self confidence, and no longer will I miss out on any family memories.

My oldest daughter, who is a nurse, convinced me to go to a seminar on LAP-BAND surgery, and there I met the answer to my prayers for restoring my life, my family, and my body.

I believe that Dr. Collier is a man who genuinely cares about his patients and wants what is best for them. He doesn't just perform the surgery and then forget about you. The most important fact that Dr. Collier has taught me is that LAP-BAND surgery is not a quick fix, but a tool that I will be able to use for the rest of my life.

Thanks Dr. Collier and staff for giving me my life back.
