After years of struggling with health issues and body image, Consie Craig made the life-changing decision to pursue weight loss surgery—and hasn’t looked back since.

“From the very first phone call, I knew I was in good hands with GBMC’s Comprehensive Obesity Management Program (COMP). They made me feel supported every step of the way. The resources, especially the patient binder, have been invaluable. I still refer to it today!”

What began as a journey to improve energy and prevent family-related health conditions has resulted in a total transformation. Post-surgery, Consie has eliminated high blood pressure, sleep apnea, and acid reflux. Even more importantly, she’s regained the freedom to fully enjoy her life.

“I can keep up with my grandchildren, hike, cycle, lift weights, and do things I never imagined. I have more energy, confidence, and a healthier relationship with food.”

With a renewed outlook and vibrant lifestyle, she says the COMP team gave her not only expert care, but a true sense of support and belonging.

“I’ve spoken with people in other programs, and they don’t receive the same level of guidance and compassion. At GBMC, I know they genuinely care about my health and well-being.”

Every journey starts with a single step—and the courage to keep going. Take that step today. Schedule your COMP consultation now.
