"I absolutely recommend! The Facility is beautiful. I did my homework on the types of laser lipo treatments in the area for about 3 weeks. I also worked for a plastic surgeon for a year so I knew my options! Sarasota laser lipo was by far the best out of all the research I had obtained on other machines and facilities.

Maryann is amazing and always so helpful and kind. She's been a blessing the whole step of the way! Dr. Rodriguez is extremely helpful and has his patients best interest in mind. He not only wants you to succeed but wants to help you feel and look your best! I am so glad after much research I chose Laser Lipo for my Journey!

UPDATE: After week 3 I lost 24 inches!!! Don't hesitate on doing something for yourself and loving you again. That is by far so important and my reason for doing this! I had lost close to 100 lbs over the last couple years and I had loose skin and no matter what I was doing it wasn't going away. I also had areas of fat that were still there from when I was heavier.. I notice a HUGE difference and so does my family. I can't wait to see what happens next!"

"I came to Sarasota Laser Lipo, as what I called my last hope at losing weight. In the past several years I had tried different plans and diets, only to fail. I do public speaking and dread each time I would have to speak. I would go to my closet to find the baggiest shirt and a pair of pants I could wear and still breathe. After 4 weeks I was down 20 pounds and had a glimmer of hope. After 6 weeks I put on a pair of shorts I hadn't worn in 8 years. I'm tossing away clothes and buying shorts that don't fall off when I wear them. I'm healthier, I have more energy and I'm not ashamed to go out in public. I have a speaking engagement coming up and I'm looking forward to wearing fashionable clothes. And after 10 weeks, I'm down 41 pounds and 154" overall. I went from a 42" waist to 36"' waist. Dr. Rodriguez and Maryann offer invaluable advice and constant encouragement throughout the process."

"I have struggled with my midsection my entire adult life. I could never get that "chiseled" look no matter what I tried and who I talked to. I lettered in two Varsity sports in high school and if not for a knee injury, would have played football at the collegiate level. Looking back, I never got the "WHY" something did or did not work and usually it was a one size fits all approach no matter what trainer or coach I spoke with over the years. Once I started to get more and more financially stable, I looked into a variety of approaches, even the invasive "six pack ab" procedure which would have cost me over 5k. I settled on cool sculpting two years ago and the results were still at best. I have consulted with Sonobello, Celebrity Trainers, Vshred, you name it I have likely spoken too or attempted it. Nothing worked. That is until I met Dr. Rodriguez at Sarasota Laser & Lipo. A couple things stood out immediately upon my arrival. I met with him and not a sales associate that had no background or degree in what they were talking about. I was not asked for my credit card or told of some new promotion they were doing. He wanted to get to know ME first and what my issues were and my lifestyle, to determine if he could even take me as a client. I was amazed with his knowledge and his ability to very quickly explain the "WHY" of why I was not seeing results. It turns out, foods and drinks I thought were healthy, were doing nothing more than hiding my abs from me. 9 days in and 7lbs of lost weight later, my abs look better than my Varsity football days, all with a simple approach. I look forward to seeing what the future brings!"

"I highly recommend Dr. Ian Rodriquez of Sarasota Laser Lipo if you are serious about losing weight and trimming inches. For years, I tried almost every diet/weight loss program and gimmick out there and while I would lose weight in the beginning, it never lasted. My weight was constantly ping ponging. FaceBook led me to Sarasota Laser Lipo and in February I started this laser red light therapy together with their sensible diet plan. The Laser Lipo treatments are pain-free; non-invasive; and require no downtime, unlike a “tummy tuck” which I was seriously considering. Their food plan starts out with a detox together with a regime of vitamins and herbal supplements - not “quick fix” drugs or diet pills. My initial skepticism dissipated after seeing results after my first treatment. Both Dr. Rodriquez and his assistant, Maryanne, are supportive, encouraging and most knowledgeable about maintaining a healthy lifestyle. While I started to drop the pounds, I also started to feel better and have more energy. In 3 weeks, I lost 6 pounds and 26.9 inches overall. I only wish I would have found them ten years ago!"

"I could not have asked for a better experience than the one I had here. Doc and Maryann are amazing! They are the best cheerleaders you could ask for and are so extremely supportive. They were always available to answer my questions and would even check in with me on the weekends. Every time I went into the office they made me feel like a million bucks and we're always excited to celebrate my progress with me. Their Facebook page has lots of great information and recipes too. They also work with you if you have certain things that are important to you or changes that you can't make and will adjust the plan as needed. I lost 17 pounds and 74 inches in 60 days and feel like a completely different person. I went down 3 dress sizes. I have continued to follow the guidelines that they gave me and continue to lose weight (and they continue to cheer me on). I really cannot stress enough what a wonderful experience I had with them and how strongly I would recommend them. Not only did they change my body, but they changed my mind and my habits and boosted my confidence higher than it has been in a long time. Give them a shot and I know that they will change your life too just like they did mine."

"I decided after fifteen years of spending thousands in supplements, magic potions, private gym instructors, and only accomplishing pure disappointment with the results, there has to be a better way. I was tired of having the dad's body, which I was not comfortable looking at myself. My clothes were getting tighter, and my closet hosted sizes to accommodate this. Starting this program only three weeks ago, I see more progress than I saw in fifteen years of every diet imaginable. My clothes fit loosely, and I am getting what I missed as a young man a waist! My energy level, attitude, and health, per my doctors, are outstanding. I feel proud and like looking in the mirror now; seeing this journey is the right track. I wish I would have known fifteen years ago because I would save myself a lot of pain and money! Thank you, Dr. Rodriguez, MaryAnn, and Sarasota Laser Lipo. Extremely Grateful, Ralph Russell Sarasota, FL".

"After coming in for a free consultation a little over 5 weeks ago, I made a decision to give this treatment a try. Hands down, THE BEST experience, and the office staff are great!! The results for me were beyond my expectations. I am extremely happy with my overall treatment. I have been feeling better about my appearance, my skin looks great and the best part of all is the fact I have lost a total of 46 inches and over 10 lbs in 5 weeks. I have now disciplined myself into continuing down this same healthy path. Without Sarasota Laser Lipo I would not have gotten here. Before them, I had no motivation or discipline. A huge thank you to Maryann and Dr. R. When I first decided to start this program I went in with an open mind and not too many expectations. It’s one thing to lose weight but it’s another to lose inches along with body fat- it’s a hard task. Two weeks into my treatment I have lost 7 lbs and over 24 inches all around. I was amazed by my results in just 2 weeks. I feel and look great, my clothes are starting to fit nice again and most of all I feel healthier and energized. The overall experience at the clinic is excellent. Dr. Rodriguez and Maryann are awesome. Dr. R would share the facts of the treatment and what you can expect in the process. After receiving my results in only 2 weeks I am very pleased. My takeaway this far is that this program/treatment and their entire process works great collectively. I can’t wait to see my next results. I am happy and grateful for Sarasota Laser Lipo."

"This is a sincere note to anyone committed to changing their lifestyle. IF you are ready to seriously commit to getting control of your health then you have found the ultimate solution. The current mindset of the medical community is to manage your health as it declines. Stop it!! Get in front of being healthy. I fully support Sarasota Laser Lipo as their program and personal interest help energize you and continues to motivate you to succeed. I am halfway through my program and my results are pretty amazing: 14 pounds and 36 inches so far. HOWEVER, most important, I have started detoxing my system and will confirm my progress with a full blood panel in January with the ultimate goal of getting off prescribed medication for sugar and Blood pressure. If you are committed and want a program that will change your life forever, then go no further, welcome home."

"I can't say enough wonderful things about every aspect of this procedure/plan and Team. Being someone whos tried MANY things to change my life for the healthier, Sarasota Laser Lipo Family has been the best experience of them all. Where to start. The environment is so relaxing and inviting. I couldn't ask for a more supportive and patient staff. Dr. Rodriguez is truly understanding of his patients needs for assurance, while still keeping us accountable. Maryann is so personable and encouraging. She makes me feel welcome and supported during a sensitive time. The Procedure and the Equipment is incredible. It is furthest from invasive, it is like a spa day. The laser treatment is warming and combine that with the setting it's easy to forget this is a medical procedure. I have had great results. ( accidentally wore my daughter's jeans and didn't know it)."

"Huge skeptic over here, that has seen the light (pun intended). 22 inches are gone from my body in a month (8 treatments) I could have done better but I have had a lot going on. My advice, follow the plan and drink water. I slipped up a lot and had very little exercise and still fit in jeans that I haven’t worn in six years! That’s winning. You won’t find a more honest group of people who really just want you to feel good about yourself and help you to your goals. It’s the easiest thing to do, go relax for 30 minutes with no pain, no downtime but actual visible results. Dr. Rodriquez and Mary Ann are amazing. I drive an hour for the treatment twice a week because it’s worth it. The office is clean, easy to find location. There are other places in the area but I did my research and found that during my consultation there was no BS. Dr. Rodriquez was honest, no nonsense. The price is affordable and worth every penny. When your doing the treatment it feels like laying on the beach, nice and warm. Mary Ann has some nice music to help you relax too. Give it a try, you can’t go wrong with a consultation. You’ll thank me later."

"For several years my weight has been a steady increase. (A lot due to stress, life changes, female issues and a decrease in metabolism but with a denial that I can’t eat like I did when I was 20). On May 11th – as Dr. Rodriquez gently gave me my weight and numbers – I finally clued in that I was in a health crisis. I weighed a little over 202 lbs, I'm under 5ft tall, and all my weight is pretty much carried in the middle. I had trouble tying my shoes! My visceral fat was double the norm – all my numbers were high and my numbers for fat in my blood were not just in the red but placed me in line for a heart attack or diabetes in the making. I signed up that day! Dr. Rodriguez has been amazing. He listens- takes the time to adjust the program as needed – he is encouraging, and Mary is an absolute gem. I love the light therapy treatments and feel energized after each session. I have noticed more energy and clarity in my thoughts. My activity level has increased and things are not as difficult. Less than a month later, I WEIGHED IN AT 187 LBS!!! I LOST 15.2 LBS – A TOTAL OF 47 INCHES THROUGH OUT MY BODY!!! I was ecstatic! More importantly all my numbers across the board decreased – even the % of fat in my blood! Say it with me…. "WOW"!!!! I feel healthier than I did a month ago…others around me are seeing a difference…. I have hope for my future. I know with Sarasota Laser Lipo, I can reach the numbers that I should have for my age and height. All I can say is, thank you Dr. Rodriguez…. thank you, Maryann …. thank you Sarasota Laser Lipo!!!! This has been a life altering decision and one of the best ones I have made in my lifetime. I hope for anyone reading this review if you get anything from what I have shared, please know a change in eating habits may seem difficult at first, but not impossible and with Dr. Rodriguez and Maryann in your corner this is just a walk in the park."

"I don’t know where to start. I’ve tried “crash dieting" a few years ago and lost a lot of weight but then gained it all back a few months ago. I have decided to make some true changes in my life, so when I heard about this treatment, I have decided to give it a try and I’m SO THRILLED THAT I DID. From my first contact with Mariann and my first consultation with Dr. Rodriguez, I felt valued and I knew I would be supported in every step of the program and I was RIGHT. This program CHANGED MY LIFE... I’m losing inches and pounds... I feel so much better mentally and physically... have so much energy and I'm making healthy choices every single day. I joined the gym for the FIRST TIME in my life. Mariann is professional and so sweet with a great personality. She always greets you with a smile and makes me feel so wonderful every time I see her :) Dr. Rodriguez is AMAZING... so knowledgeable and walks you step-by-step. He takes the time to listen to you and supports you in every possible way to reach your goals. He’s always available for you as well. I just can’t say enough about this clinic and the staff. All I can say is THANK YOU! If I can give (11) STARS, I would!! This is the best thing I ever did to change my life ... and if you are serious about changing your life, don’t wait another day".

"I started this journey being very skeptical as I’m sure most people are. I started five weeks ago and have lost a total of 35.5 inches overall and 20 pounds. Since December, I have tried to lose weight every way possible with no results. Since I started this program, I have more energy, more brain clarity, my cravings have completely changed to things that are good for me and it didn’t take much more than seeing day-by-day results with the program!!! I have failed every diet that I have been on. I'm so incredibly motivated and I will shamefully admit that I have cheated a few times, but it did not affect me as bad as I would have thought. (I am not encouraging that however). I haven't felt this great in years. I can’t wait to see the end results at the final five weeks of the program. Not only is it non-invasive, but as I lose weight... my skin and cellulite are also shrinking with this non- surgical program!!! My original goal at the end of this 10-week program was to wear a two-piece bathing suit. I'm five weeks in and I’m already wearing one!!!"

"I must admit I was very skeptical about the laser lipo program so I brought my husband to my consultation for moral support! The consultation was so informative that we both decided to give the program a try! In 12 weeks I have lost 78 inches and 22 pounds and I feel great! My husband has one more session and then he will know his results. We have learned sooooo much about eating foods that benefit our bodies, minds, and well being and we feel confident that we will continue the good eating habits we have learned. Dr. Rodrigues and Maryann are genuine people that truly care about their patients, I would highly recommend them and this program!"
