Sheila Valdez

December 16th 2021 my life completely changed and I cannot thank Dr Amit Taggar enough for bringing my life back!!

I was diagnosed with breast cancer Dec 2020 and had surgery Jan 2021. I was told this was my wake up call and I had to get the weight off. After I completed treatment my first visit for weight loss surgery (gastric sleeve) was May 11, 2021 and I weighed in at 291lbs. Every month for 7 months I had to do a monthly visit and make sure I didn’t gain.

On Dec 16 morning of surgery I weighed in at 274 and now 3 years later I have maintained between 171 and 175.

On Nov 13th 2024 I had Panniculectomy surgery with Dr Juan Socas and I just put on my first pair of jeans and zipped them right up!!!

All I can say is Thank You to all of my Doctors in getting me to where I am now.
