Andy Hubbard of Columbus once tipped the scales at well over 400 pounds.

Back then, he struggled with high blood pressure, diabetes and bad knees.

Since Dr. Terry Pinson performed his weight loss surgery in October 2021 at North Mississippi Medical Center, his health problems have greatly improved.

Now 195 pounds lighter, Andy says, “I can tie my shoes. I don’t break chairs. I can get up from the floor.”

To anyone considering weight loss surgery, he says once you’re ready to commit, “Do it!”
