Lowell General Hospital Weight Management and Bariatric Surgery program helps siblings lose a combined 600 lbs.

At 5-foot-8 and 295 pounds, Scott Strainge knew his weight was a contributing factor to his health issues. He was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes eight years ago, which eventually progressed to a point where he needed seven different medications a day to keep his blood sugar and blood pressure under control.

Growing up, Curtis Challenger got used to being “big-boned” and the “cute chubby kid.”

Fresh fruits and vegetables will once again be available at Lowell General Hospital’s main and Saints campuses one day per week thanks to Mill City Grows’ Mobile Market.
