    I am booked with the same surgeon through the same Tullia Law. I have been naive and paid a large deposit to this person, she is very pushy and bombards you with calls and emails, she claims the price is going to go up to get you to pay, she rushes you through the whole process and in the excitement you do silly things, she says you can pay in installments then constantly calls asking you when you are paying the rest of the deposit. I started to get wary so I researched things (should have done this before!) and there are a few complaints about cancelled surgeries and things going wrong, 1 claimed she is a fraudster...I seriously hope this is not the case, this is a lot of money to me and I have scrimped and saved for this. I amn not saying this isn't a genuine service, i'm pretty sure it is, but her conduct isn't the best from what i've seen so far! I have also found she is an agent, NOT the receptionist of the hospital like I naively believed, she makes a cut off the money...if you book your surgery direct with the surgeon not only can you choose your own but you can get it cheaper. I have also emailed her to say I would like to choose my own surgeon not have one assigned to me as I have never even heard of Dr Vanden Borre and google searches bring up nothing. I will be going with Chris De bryune or I want a refund and they can keep the extortionate £300 admin fee too, i'd rather have my health!
