Zatara came to TopSurgeons in search of help after trying a variety of weight loss programs.

After injuring her knee at the age of 14, Zatara said she gained weight pretty rapidly with not being able to exercise properly. As Zatara sees it, the different weight loss programs she tried just did not work for her. "I probably tried most of them twice," Zatara said.

Zatara then put her plan in motion to find a cure for her weight problem. She looked around and came into TopSurgeons for a consultation. "I looked around trying to find the right doctor," Zatara said. "After looking at the bios and the experience that the doctors at TopSurgeons had, Zatara settled on having the Lap Band surgery done.

"I felt comfortable with them (TopSurgeons) and I couldn't be happier with the results," Zatara commented.

Zatara has lost some 50 pounds since having the procedure done. "The results have been amazing," Zatara remarked.

Since the surgery, Zatara has gone back to the gym to resume working out. "I have more energy and I don't feel afraid to do stuff," Zatara added.

While going through a knee injury is not something she wanted to do, the experience may have been the best break possible for Zatara, setting her on the road to recovery of weight problem with the doctors at TopSurgeons.
