Alicia lost 107 pounds, but regained her life at Jupiter Medical Center.

“Every morning, I wake up full of energy and ready to start my day.” – Alicia Landosca

In 2004, Alicia was diagnosed with Graves’ disease, an autoimmune disorder that results in an overactive thyroid. She continued to gain weight over the years, feeling unlike herself and trapped in her own body. She had a laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy performed by Dr. Jefferson Vaughan, medical director of Jupiter Medical Center’s Institute for Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery. Alicia no longer needs her medications and is once again able to enjoy her favorite activities.

Jupiter Medical Center offers new hope to those who struggle with healthy weight management. Contact us today for a comprehensive, personalized program of services and surgical procedures.

When I was in elementary school, I went through a very extreme pro- environment phase. It was spurred on by a school assembly speaker from a national environmental group who scared the bejeezus out of us with pictures of rainforests being cut down, acid rain and dead wildlife. He then told us that by the turn of the century, the world will have run out of oil and we all would be riding horses again unless we cut back our consumption. I can remember actually not talking to my parents for a week because they warmed up their car for five minutes on a particularly cold day. I thought that they were wasting a resource that was about to run out any day. Flash-forward 30 years and the world is awash in cheap oil. So why didn’t we run out of oil and why is the price of the commodity currently at multi-year lows?
