History
Gary was admitted to Seattle Grace Hospital following a leg lengthening operation in Hong Kong. Callie was horrified at the state of his legs, which were still pinned and the surgical incision sites still open and heavily infected. In surgey Callie and Mark had no choice but to reverse the procedure and remove all the diseased bone and tissue, taking his height to a quarter below 5ft 3.

Personality
Gary is very insecure and bitter about being 5ft 3 and believes being short is the reason he is currently single. It is this belief that drove him to have the controversal leg lengthening procedure in Hong Kong (a procedure which Calle does not do as the risk of infection and complications is so high). He is furious to hear that having surgery made him shorter. Whilst Callie and Mark state that he is lucky to keep his legs, his brother states that the only person to have a issue with his height is himself, which is the reason why he is single.
