Success Stories
A Life Changing Procedure.
Matthew Daniels had been a “big guy” for all his life. He was active, played sports in school, and was never really slowed down by his weight. That started to change five years ago as his weight continued to creep up year after year, until he recognized a noticeable change in his ability to do things he wanted to do.
“I married the love of my life, we had three children, and I started building my business. All the while I was gaining 10 pounds or more a year, and my weight started to become a struggle,” says Matthew. “As my kids grew, they wanted to do more and more things – ride roller coasters, play ball in the yard – and it was getting harder and harder for me to keep up with them.”
Bariatric surgery helped Jay Garcia lose more than 100 pounds and improve his health.
Lauren & Buz
Occasionally our patients make the decision to have bariatric surgery as a couple. This was the case for Buz and Lauren. They came to Dr. Ponce in 2001. Each had bariatric surgery, and here they are after losing a total of 320 pounds! Congratulations to a beautiful couple, on their success and determination together. Individual results may vary.
