Patient Testimonials

I was 54-1/2 years old and weighed nearly 300 pounds. I had diabetes, sleep apnea, high cholesterol, Irregular Heartbeat and high blood pressure. I used a CPAP machine at night and I took daily medication for diabetes, cholesterol and irregular heartbeat. In addition, arthritis began creeping into my knees. My quality of life was about to drop like a rollercoaster as it begins its descent.

I had stopped truly living my life but the sad part is, I didn’t realize it. Sure, over the years I tried different diets, even losing some weight and feeling pretty good about myself at times, but it never lasted.

I would like to thank Dr. Aguila and the entire team for helping me to begin a brand new life. I had the surgery on February 28, 2008 and I have lost 70 lbs. I feel absolutely wonderful and I have personally sent 6 new patients to begin the process of changing their lives through this magnificent experience as well.
