Gastric bipass and diabetes...

So I was shopping, the other day and ended up at the nail salon.  I was only there for a minute, but when I stepped in, I saw part of this clip on the ABC news.  And as a nurse I was amazed. 

I have watched patients (and loved ones) suffer and die from complications related to diabetes.  Seeing how much a gastric bipass can help is so exciting because I'm sure it can save so many people. 

Take a peek at the clip if you have time!

  1. Last night Chronicle aired a segment on a local woman who underwent Gastric Bypass surgery at Newton-Wellesley Hospital. Here's a link to it: http://www.thebostonchannel.com/chronicle/27548727/detail.html
