I had surgery thru a lighter me with dr Ortiz April 5..everything was as they said it would be...they even had music on in the operating room which made me calmer...great experience.

Hope u are feeling good! Glad everything went well.

Hi Jill. Hope everything goes well for u

I used dr Ortiz and a lighter me. Had a great experience. Mi doctor is very clean and great nurses..stayed at the Marriott which is top notch. Would def recommend both.

There is a WalMart and shopping plaza and even the movies close to the Marriott..a taxi costs 3.00. not much to do at the hospital no close by restaurants and cafeteria is closed on Sundays....felt very safe the entire time.

sleeved wed...very happy with a lighter me and dr Ortiz...at Marriott now...mi doctor hospital is very professional and clean. The nurses spoke a little English but someone was always there to translate..we walked to WalMart and applebees and shopping from the hotel...never felt scared. Overall great trip....bring gas x strips for sure.
