That does sounds fishy, I chose Dr. Lopez and there is a coordinator who walks you through the process on every thing including paying a $500 deposit but you can mail it, make a deposit in Bank of America into their account or pay by credit card.. I didn't have to send copies of any thing. I have been very active on this site and I haven't heard of anyone talking about victory or weight loss agent. Maybe you should look at some of the more popular doctors.

That's right I forgot I can deposit the money in Back of America. I need to call Rika, so I can take care of that  next week.. Did you purchase your vitamins there?

DR. KELLY DOES NOT ASK FOR A DEPOSIT.  I HAVE DONE A LOT OF RESEARCH AND I AM GOING WITH DR.KELLY. I THINK I WOULD BE A LITTLE RELUCTANT ABOUT GIVING SOMEONE MY ID AND CREDIT CARD INFO. I WAS TOLD WITH DR. KELLY ALL I HAVE TO DO IS SEND IN A PIC OF THE CASHIERS CHECK.

I THINK DR. ALMANZA WORKED OUT OF THAT JERUSALEM HOSPITAL AND I READ A LOT OF NEGATIVE THINGS ABOUT THAT PLACE.IT IS NOW CLOSED DOWN. SOME PEOPLE HAD A GOOD EXPERIENCE SOME BAD, BUT THAT GOES FOR ANY DR OR HOSPITAL.

 

GOOD LUCK TO YOU!

I don't blame you for being uncomfortable with that at all.  I am going with Dr. Kelly and am VERY confident in my decision.  There is no deposit, but I will be sending a picture of the checks to the coordinator that are made out to the hospital and the Dr. to ensure that I have them made out correctly.

What a great and helpful summary of your experience! I go in on Monday here in NJ and feel better for having seen how detailed your post is. It helping to ease my anxiety! Best of luck on the losers bench.

So happy for you! I too am considering using Dr Lopez and Vida. I am a nurse and am most worried about the quality of the hospital and patient outcomes. My spouse plans on traveling with me. He is worried about the safety of Tijuana but I told him that New Orleans is just as dangerous and we visit there yearly. Anything you can offer to put us at ease would be appreciated!!

Same here, I am thinking about the VSG and thinking about March as well. I am expecting to have a decision made by end of month.  So I'll let you know what time in March and I would love to meet you and share support!

Heath, called me as well yesterday. I definitely felt as ease after he spoke to me and he has been a VSG patient as well.  My next step is to contact Dr. Kelly directly. Still a bit nervous about going to Mexico.  But I'll continue to do my research.  Good luck!

Definitely check out Dr.Kelly!

No deposit, no copy of my Credit Card

Dr.Kelly only does a few surgeries a day ... Where I think Almanza does like 10 .... Something to consider!  Dr. Kelly's bed-side manner is beyond excellent!
