Best doctor ever - I feel like I got my life back

In 2015 my primary care physician suggested I consider weight loss surgery. I was sort of devastated (and obviously in denial as I weighed in at 206 pounds), but he had just diagnosed me with diabetes and I could no longer avoid the fact that my weight was killing me. I researched my options and decided on OCC and Dr. Ortiz. It was the best decision of my life. I'm almost 5 years out and have not regretted it a single day since. I lost over 70 pounds and feel like I got my life back. The experience was great and having it done in Mexico was a non-issue.

The clinic is beautiful and the staff is extraordinarily helpful at every step of the journey. Dr. Ortiz has the unique ability to be exceptionally professional and at the same time extremely engaging and personable. This is a man who is passionate about his work. Two months after I had my surgery (at age 55), I took my 70-year-old mom to OCC to have her sleeve done. They treated her like a queen. I wish I could get the kind of care I received at OCC here in the USA! I can't recommend Dr. Ortiz highly enough.
