A New Beginning
Chris R
Miramar , FL
-152lbs
After doing research to the point that some might consider obsessive, looking at my options, the OCC always came out on top. Between videos and personal testimonials about the OCC, I decided to call. The rest is another OCC success story.
Like many of us, my weight has been an issue a good major of my life. I have been on every diet known to man and they all worked for me, for about 6 months, when inevitably the weight came back with its friends 10-20 extra pounds. In the spring of 2013, my son graduated from high school, and left Florida for college in Louisiana. While I was moving him into his dorm, I had a slight moment of clarity. It would be selfish of me not to explore every option available to prolong my life, not only for myself, but for him and others I love, at that point I was at 321 pounds and my blood work was off the charts. I came home from Louisiana in August and started doing as much research I could possibly do in reference to WLS. Every search, forum, video and personal testimony led me to Doc. Ortiz and the OCC. I made my first call to the OCC in September and on October 3, 2013 I was reassured by Doc Ortiz and Doc Martinez that everything would be ok and I had made the correct decision. Needless to say, 2 and 1/2 years and 155+ pounds later, they were right.
