Default My Choice Medical - PS Financing

Anyone have experience or information regarding My Choice Medical? Apperantly this company will finance anyone seeking PS with a relatively small down payment, and low monthly payments. They set you up with a doctor in your area, and a representative from their company will meet you at the consultation. It is at this time that you will complete loan documents and schedule the actual procedure. It seems to good to be true, and wondered if any one had info. I'm five years out, and have just recently considered plastic surgery. I just got a referral from my PCP to a PS for a tummy tuck, documenting problems for the past six months. However, I'm seeking financing for a breast reduction and thigh lift. (Unfortunately, I do not have reoccuring issues in these area's, so I can't submit them for insurance approval.) Also, I know every one differs in amount of weight loss, but any clue on how much one will loose after a tummy tuck? (No muscle tightening, just the panni removal)

Thanks!

i used something similar when i had my RNY surgery. I went through Care Credit which is basically a low interest credit loan for medical services.

Chances are when i'm ready for the plastics that i know will be necessary due to my weight, I'll probably use the care credit again. It didn't cover the full amount of my surgery, but enough to where i could afford the difference

Please check into this company before you decide to go with them. I know there are many medical finance companies out there that are legitimate, but I do not believe that is one of them. Check out this link: Rip-off Report: My Choice Medical, Or "Drs. Say Yes" , Dr. Roy Kim, Rabia Khan, deposit of $999. to money-hungry,"My Choice Medical", Dr. Roy Kim refuses to oper.and "MCM" doesn't answer 4wks of calls. Stroudsburg Pennsylvania
