Did You Pay in Full for Operation Before Leaving for Mexico?

[Animal Lover 2]

I just wanted to check and see when did everyone pay for their operations. I want to be sure that the hospital is legit before give my money to people I've never met. I'm concerned that I will get to San Diego waiting for my ride to MBC and no one will show up. Was anyone else worried about whether or not the the hospital was legit.

I know I sound like an idiot. Can anyone chime in to calm me down.

Thanks

Your concern is legit, I too felt insecure about the unknowness of it all. I had to pay a deposit which I made through a bank money transfer. I paid the remaining balance with a cashier's check. We sent them a copy of it and when we got to the hospital we turned the check in to the person in charge. When you get to San Diego a driver will text and call you, he will pick you up and take you to the hospital. The hospital is small, nothing like the fancy ones we have here in the states but the doctor that operated on me Dr. Gutierrez was very knowledable, kind and caring. I'm certain they all are professional there as well. Don't be afraid, it will be over before you think about it and you will be on your journey to health. My experience was great, no pain and the nurses were very sweet to me. I wish you the best.

I used my credit card, because I didn't want to carry that much cash. I paid a $500 deposit using the card, then I let my CC company know well ahead of time, that I would me making a large purchase in Mexico.

The place I plan on using is $4195

I paid a $500 deposit through paypal, and the remainder with a cashiers check at the hospital in Tijuana.

If the place requires full payment first, I'd be leary.

Which place are you using? The place I'm using requires $500 deposit as well but I kinda want to go ahead and pay $3100 so I won't spend the money elsewhere or on something else! Lol

I went with Dr. Illan. (He is advertised all over this site). I had my sleeve on March 20 of this year, and had a great experience. I healed well, and am halfway to goal!

Feel free to PM me for more details about my experience. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

About to now.

I paid in full ahead, although payment was due at the time of check in. It was just easier for me and I paid through credit card.

That's my plan as well. Mines is like $4195. I'm gonna pay $3100 up front.
