Patient Success Stories - Yalietza

I wanted to be able to play with my daughters without having breathing issues. My life changed drastically! I have more confidence, my marriage has improved, and so has my quality of life. I was able to fit in a roller coaster and finally able to go skydiving!

Patient Success Stories - Demetrias

I started this journey, because my health and quality of life was declining. Today, I have overall better health, more energy, no medications and more time with my family. Thanks to the -support of the St. Joseph’s team, I was able to trust the process and change my habits.

Patient Success Stories - Terika

I was always against medical weight loss and used to consider it the easy way out. One day, I stumbled upon the BayCare weight loss question on the website, and that is how it all started. Now, I have the life I never thought I’d have or deserved. The amount of pressure I no longer carry is more than the weight I have lost.
