He's Great But..

He's awesome, definitely the best plastic surgeon in Dominican republic if you're looking natural results. I'll try to be brief: I am Dominican, raised in DR and Boston. I've been doing research for my surgery for about 4 years now. Doctor Ventura is the best in the Dominican Republic because there is no doctor over there that works as he does. His lipos are not aggressive and he makes sure the results go with your body. He gets the best results out of your body. Yes, you get what you pay for. Now, I am not trying to sound cheap but I definitely think many factors influence prices. First: I paid $6000 DOP for a consult which is $112, not $70 as stated in this website. I thought it was a bit higher than other doctors but considering it's him, I didn't mind paying it. The consult was brief, I waited for him longer than what I actually spent speaking to him. Then I get the treatment plan.. I'm 5'5, 160 lbs. I'm not skinny but I am not fat. Dr Ventura is charging me ( ALL USD) $6000 for back and front lipo , $3000 for arms lipo and $1500 for fat transfer which HE SAID HIMSELF it won't be that much because 1: I want my butt as natural as possible and 2: My butt is a fair size. The purpose of the fat transfer was to make my butt look toned. I know many would say "If you can't afford it look for someone else" or "you get what you pay for" but how come is he charging me lipo for every area in my body? I've spoken to other doctors that do lipo where is necessary and it's one price!! (unless you want neck lipo or something like that) how weird will I look if I get lipo and leave my arms fat? Also, keep in mind that he is in the DOMINICAN REPUBLIC so that influences a lot on the price. I've seen horrible doctors charging a lot of money only because they're in Beverly Hills or Miami. Ok, that is the way he works, I respect it but how come I haven't been able to speak to the doctor about this because for a 5-minute call I have to pay $50USD as if I am wasting his time. I am trying to be your patient, I am not doing this for free, and if I am paying to put myself in an operating room so you can take care of me, I think I should have the right to speak to you, especially after I met you in person so you know I am sure and about this procedure. I've texted with plastic surgeons from Beverly Hills directly, yes they charge $50,000 just for boobs, but hey, at least I spoke to the doctor. He answered my questions, gave me the prices, I can't afford it? then move to the next but AT LEAST I get to speak to the DOCTOR about it. I just think his staff focuses WAYYYY too much on the money instead of the patient's needs, concerns and questions. I can complain all I want about prices and I will still pay him whatever he wants if I really want him to do my surgery. What bothers me is not the money, it's the fact that they made me feel like they're exclusive and if I don't have the money he can't see me. At the end of the day, when you really want something you find the way so money is not the problem. I just think they need to be more human.
