Dr. Ortiz and the OCC

I get a lot of crap from people and doctors because I had my band done in Mexico.  I did a lot of research and talked to people who had used the OCC before I made the decision and because insurance doesn't considure weight loss surgery to be important I knew I had to leave the country to get a start on a new life.  I was so excited when I saw that Newsweek Magazine chose Dr. Ortiz and his clinic as one of the 15 bariatric surgeons.   I have posts several times how much I love the OCC and how I got the best care and it is nice to be able to say that I had my surgery done by one of the best.

  3. Cool! People talk crap about a lot of things. But what is important is how we feel about our own decisions and staying true to ourselves!

  4. If it wasn't that, they would find something else to criticize. That's is just in the nature for some people. Good on you for doing research and finding what works for you! :)

  5. Neat news! Have to agree with Beth Ann, if they weren't knocking that place, they would be knocking something else. We have to try and not let things like that bother us because you are helping yourself and that's what matters!

    I think alot of people give others crap about things because their jealous. You made the decision that you needed to make and you have alot of people supporting you, whether they be in real life or blog world. Don't worry about what others say, you did good!!
