I am 10 days post op, down 21 pounds from pre-surgery weight and feeling pretty good so far. The team at OCC were all excellent through the entire process. They answered all my questions and made sure I was comfortable. Transportation was very easy from the airport to the center and back to the airport. The hotel was excellent and my companion had all the restaurants he could have wanted on site. Overall, the experience was excellent!

My entire experience with OCC was truly wonderful from beginning to end. Efren answered all of my pre-op questions. From the moment I arrived, every single staff member was kind, attentive, and welcoming, which immediately helped put my nerves at ease. Meeting with my surgeon, Dr. Ortiz, gave me complete confidence in my decision, and his professionalism and care meant so much to me. The same warmth and attention continued throughout my recovery and post-op care until I was safely discharged to return home to Canada. I am incredibly grateful for the outstanding care I received and would highly recommend OCC.

I had my bariatric sleeve surgery at the Obesity Control Center, and I honestly cannot say enough good things about my experience. From the moment I walked through their doors, I felt welcomed, cared for, and reassured that I was in the best possible hands. The staff is absolutely amazing—professional, kind, and always willing to answer every question with patience and understanding. The doctors are world-class experts who truly care about their patients’ health and long-term success. They guided me through every step of the process, from pre-op preparation to post-op recovery, making sure I was comfortable and confident along the way. The facility itself is spotless, modern, and designed to make you feel at ease. Everything ran smoothly, and I always felt like my health and safety were the top priority. What really stood out to me was how much support I received—not only medically, but emotionally as well. They treat you like family and genuinely want to see you succeed. Since my surgery, I’ve felt healthier, more energetic, and more optimistic about my future. Choosing the Obesity Control Center was truly one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. If you’re considering bariatric surgery, I wholeheartedly recommend them—you will be in excellent hands.

I recently stayed at OCC for surgery and I must say, it was one of the best experiences I've ever had at a hospital. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted by an incredibly friendly and professional staff who made me feel comfortable and at ease. The level of care I received throughout my stay was exceptional, and I felt completely supported every step of the way. The Nurses are simply amazing and very attentive to your needs! The hotel Lucirna itself is a true luxury, with stunning amenities and a serene atmosphere. My room was beautifully appointed, offering a perfect blend of comfort and sophistication. It was a true retreat! A huge thank you to Dr. Ortiz – he is absolutely amazing! He took the time to explain everything thoroughly and made sure I was completely confident before my procedure. The surgery went smoothly, and I’m already feeling great! Overall, I couldn’t be happier with my experience at both Lucirna and OCC, highly recommend this place to anyone seeking top-tier care in a luxurious setting. Thank you to everyone who made my stay so memorable!

Had a great experience at OCC. they are very organized, profession and you receive amazing care! They walk you through each step of the way. I felt very safe from pickup to drop off at the airport. The border crossing was easier than expected. Hotel was nice and comfortable. I would suggest brushing up on some Spanish for even easier communication when not at the OCC, but it’s not totally necessary. I am so happy I made this decision for myself, oh, I went unaccompanied and it was great!
