Brooke Ochojski Achieved Measurable Lab Improvements and Life Transformation After Explant Surgery

Brooke Ochojski (00:00) I would say that Dr. Rob has completely transformed my life. Not only my health, but it's given me so much back that feel like I have a new beginning on life. My name is Brooke Ochojski. I am three and half almost four months post-explant, and I came from Boise, Idaho. So, before meeting Dr. Robert Whitfield and having my explant, I would say the last few years have been very difficult. I had a lot of different symptoms ranging from fatigue, depression, a lot of gastrointestinal issues. My labs also started to paint a picture that things were not right. My hormones were off, I had little to zero testosterone. So my first interview with Dr. Robert Whitfield was a Zoom call. After meeting with him and talking to him and learning more about his experience and my symptoms, and just really feeling validated for the first time, I felt incredibly comfortable choosing him. And from that moment on, everything has just been incredible. all of the interactions with all of the staff, the process, his entire program, and I really didn't need to look any further. The recovery process with the team has been One day post-op going into the office, the team was incredible. I had a little bit more of a difficult recovery physically, and everybody was extremely kind, accommodating, wanting to Basically there for me step by step. And then the process of coming back home and having the calls with providers and check-ins has just been so reassuring, helping me through this journey of healing and what to expect, managing my symptoms. The care has been incredible. Like that's one thing I can say is through this whole process, it has been very, very comprehensive, and unlike anything I've ever experienced before. It's definitely been a journey. From where I'm at now to where I had the surgery, I'm so much stronger, just not only physically, mentally, emotionally, because it is definitely a of healing and going through all of the steps of healing. So many of my symptoms have already improved. So many of my labs have already improved. It's one thing to notice different symptoms, but to actually see something measurable that you can look and see where you've been to where you are now, is incredibly powerful and continues to motivate me to continue down this path of healing, and wanting to live my healthiest, best life. Seeing the change in my body has been incredibly reassuring. I'm so happy I did it. I wish I would have done it sooner. That's my only regret. I would recommend Dr. Rob because he is an expert in breast implant illness. He is an expert in functional medicine, which was super important to me. That it's not just a surgical procedure where you're cut, the procedure is done, and then it's hands off. Dr. Rob's entire philosophy is very comprehensive in treating the whole patient, not just the actual surgery. Just so much ongoing support from pre-surgery up until surgery and after.
