Dr. Ortiz is an expert in his field. My post op recovery has been absolutely incredible! He is very personable and was willing to answer any questions I had prior to surgery. Dr. Ortiz and his team kept me informed of what was happening as well as post op instructions.

Wonderful Experience
Fantastic doctor! The Obesity Control Center as a whole is a top-of-the-line facility with a very friendly and accommodating staff that goes above and beyond to make your entire trip as simple and easy as possible while also keeping you physically comfortable. I would go back again although I hope I won't need to! I have already referred a few people to the OCC because I had such a great experience.

Amazing Professionals
This is a super professional, top notch factility that coordinates everything beautifully. It is only been a few weeks and some of the scars have literally disappeared already. It has honestly been a lot easier than I thought it was going to be.

Only Clinc I Would Trust
Dr Ortiz has great bedside manners. Appreciate the time he took to answer my questions. Although it was a quick interaction, I didn't feel rushed. I also appreciated that he knew my history before speaking to me. I wasn't just the next one on the list.
I cannot say enough amazing things about my experience. From the moment I began this journey, every member of the team made me feel informed, safe, and genuinely cared for. My patient coordinator, Fernanda, was outstanding—always quick to respond, clear with information, and incredibly supportive. She gave me a sense of reassurance that meant everything going into surgery. Dr. Ortiz and Dr. Martinez were phenomenal—not only as surgeons but also as educators. They took the time

Excellent Care, Great Team!
I had a fantastic experience with Dr. Ortiz and all of the staff at OCC! Their process is like a well oiled machine. Everyone is friendly and caring, the facilities are beautiful and immaculately clean, best care I’ve ever had compared to anything in the US or Canada! Would do it over again if making the choice again.

I had an amazing experience
My experience with Dr Ortiz and OCC was amazing and was five-star service. From pick-up in San Diego to surgery and postop they are completely on top of it. The surgery center was better than anything I've been to in the US and the staff is amazingly supportive with wealth of information to share to make you successful.
