Sunny's Story

My name is Sunny. My health and my life were being affected by my weight. My doctor recommended I talk with Dr. McEwen about the LAP-BAND®.  My doctor was opposed to the Roux En Y because of the potential risks. He also thought I was too young to have such a drastic surgery. So I talked to Dr. McEwen in depth about the procedure. 

I was the first patient in Indiana to have my Lap Band Surgery in an Outpatient Facility!  My surgery was in June. I am losing weight steadily. I made the investment in myself. My insurance would not cover the procedure. I battled for 8 months with my insurance company but then I decided: MY LIFE IS WORTH THE SMALL PRICE OF INVESTING IN MYSELF! I have no complaints other than wishing I would not have waited so long.
