change of policy Angeles Hospital in Mexico?

So I was just informed by my contact at Dr. Ramos Kelly's office that the Hospital Angeles requires a cash payment or they change a 16% tax and charge a different exchange rate(17 instead of 18.5 per US $). Does this sound shady to anyone else?

I have not paid the deposit yet. I was told if I booked a date at Angeles and there were others that day it would be $1400 less but now there's no $1400 discount regardless if someone else books that day or not.

I'm going with Kelly.. March 28. Deposit of $520 PayPal fee included.

$3150 cashiers check for dr Kelly. $1000 cash for clinic. I received a VERY lengthy email with payment instructions, diet plan, post op expectations...EVERYTHING. There is a extra percentage for using a card.

I went to Hospital Angeles in February 2016 & they took my credit card so not too sure where the cash policy is coming in. They told me I could pay with a cashier's check a credit card or a debit card.

What was your experience like with the hospital?

I used Dr. Rodriguez at BeLite Weight in Juarez. Star Medica Hospital. I paid a $500 deposit online, and then paid the rest with a cashier's check once I got there. Great experience.
