VSG payments???

Just got approved for surgery they want a down payment for $250 with my credit card. Then they want me to fill out a form with my credit card information and mail it into their office. Not comfortable with that. Have anyone experience this. My surgery suppose to be performed in Mexico by Dr. Almanza. I found him on the internet thru weightloseagents.com

I would not be comfortable giving out that information either. I had surgery in February. For my deposit I had to mail a certified check. Then take a certified check with me for the remainder when I had surgery.

The remaining portion how did you pay it and when did they require you to pay it

I took a certified check for the remainder. I had a consult with the doctor the morning of the surgery. He took the check during that meeting.

I personally wouldn't be confortable with Almanza, too many bad reviews out there.. Just my opinion..

I thought Dr Almanza was one of the popular surgeons in MX. Who else would be good in Tijuana?

I am looking into Dr. Garcia and  Dr. Quinones. I don't mind paying  a bit more for a real good surgeon.

I am concerned about the hospitals or clinics, Any recommendations?

Almanza and Quiñones...really bad reviews, I didn't do mine with garcia, but he doesn't have bad reputation...I heard good experiences from his patients.

I keep seeing this comment when I do different searches and it has me curious. Why do you say Dr. Q has "really bad reviews"? I've been researching and I'm not seeing anything of the sort. You are making me wonder if maybe I'm not doing something correctly. I'd love to know what you've read/seen. Thanks! 

He is popular because he is cheap but dig well enough and you will read of complications.  He does 240 surgeries a month out of a clinic at a strip mall ! Bariatric Pal endorces him and they have been known to delete posts and block people who say too many negatives about him.  That's a fact, they deleted my post just yesterday.  Dr. Q is good I would definitely consider him but IMHO the best in Mexico are Dr. Rodriguez (that's who I'm using, 10,000 procedures under his belt and full service modern hospital the whole time you're there) and Dr. Ramos Kelley, Dr. Corvela and Dr. Alvarez, oh and Whilmey and Illan seem good too.
