Dr. Elias Ortiz - A lighter Me

[Heather Meyer 103]

Well i can tell you that i had Dr. Ortiz and he was awesome. The kind of first rate care i got was incredible.He spent more time answering my questions and talking with me about concerns than any dr or surgeon ive seen in canada.

By the way..just because he is not a "certified" bariatric surgeon..doesnt mean he wasnt taught by the best. Dr. Lopez taught Dr. Ortiz and a few other Drs. If he didnt know what he was doing then he wouldnt be allowed to perform surgeries. And trust me...he has done several. So dont get all freaked out

I am a band to sleeve revision, which they say is more complicated than just sleeve. For that reason, I'm unsure about using him. With limited experience I'm not sure how many revisions he has done. With that being said still I have not heard one negative thing about him other than he is not a "certified" bariatric surgeon.

Yeah, I haven't either. Just really feel in my heart that we were misled. Never did request my op report- but it's been almost 5 months and we're all doing great. Not that it matters, but he is pretty easy on the eyes too!! ????
