Since my thyroid was removed at age 36, I have had a difficult time losing weight. I tried many options for losing weight but nothing seemed to work long term. I currently work as a dentist and have had multiple patients who have had great success with the gastric sleeve, including surgeries that were completed at OCC. I searched all around the country for information regarding the sleeve and peoples success. Roads seemed to turn to Dr. Ortiz and OCC. In April at age 58, I had the gastric sleeve surgery. I am still on the weight loss journey. My life has changed for the better. I am no longer on blood pressure medication and no loner using my CPAP machine. Heartburn has decreased substantially. Thank you OCC!
