Had another profile on here but wanted to start afresh since so much has changed. Still seeking a good doctor for my BBL and hope I receive the results I need without any recovery issues.

SOOOOOO... I am still a flatty. I initially wanted to go with Cortes (still wish I could) but unfortunately I simply cannot afford him. I am, however, trying to decide between Dr. Ortega and Dr. Fisher. I believe I'll get better care and customer service from Ortega but Fisher seems to be better at giving the result I am looking for. I have read so many horrible reviews about Vanity that I am scared to go there but I am only interested in getting this procedure done right and only once so Fisher would be a safe bet.

Another thing that worries me is I have seen so many worth its and not worth it reviews for Fisher where the patients all have drain issues. They accumulate liquid and have a hard time recovering where as I've seen videos with girls straight out of surgery with Ortega looking Fresh-to-Death and very little issues.

If anyone can give advice or info please feel free.

Welcome back! Have you commented on any reviews for Dr. Ortega or Dr. Fisher yet? That's a great way to meet other girls who have gone to those doctors so you can get the full story of their experience. (They'll usually come over and check out your review too)

Hey Hunni, I too wanted Cortes but his prices seem to go up as I speak. Too expensive! Ortega seems to be a good choice too. He doesn't give dunks though. He's more on the conservative side. Vanity had horrible reviews in the past but they must have switch management or something Cuz they all about customer service and making money of course. I haven't had a problem with them. Many other girl reviews I read that were updated within a few months also had good service with them

Thanks. Good to hear Vanity is getting better at CS. I haven't yet had an issue and I am praying I don't. I decided to go with Fisher bcuz of that fact. Ortega just doesn't give the results I want overall.

If you have a problem with the girls speak to Claudia, shes the customer service manager. I had a few word for her about the girls today and she straightened it up real quick!! Good Luck #FisherSisters :)

After today I may need to speak to her. $60 out of pocket faxing labs over and over and over to different numbers and even after spending half a day in fedex I left without confirmation of receipt. Im sure as hell not sending it again. I'll walk into preop with my labs in hand.

Hey I'm new on her as well and I to am from new Orleans I also would love to go to Dr. Cortes but he's ridiculously to high so now my journey to is with Dr. Fisher i have spoke Jessica actually site hit me today and left a message but haven't gotten back with her but I'm skeptical as well buti have to say his work is awesome but my own advice would be to just pray about it because it is our money but most importantly or life were talking about and I'm just trying to get my body in the best health do that when I do decide to have it done hopefully that would be less chances of me having a reaction from the surgery unless the doctor just is careless but glad to hear someone from my neck of the woods is on here and have the same concerns that I to am struggling with. ...

Welcome!! Jessica is also my coordinator. Just a heads up...be on your P's and Q's with her she is shifty!! Nice girl but money talks with her and she seems to be all over the place. Hopefully you'll have a good journey and a good overall surgical experience.
January 30, 2015
Yes thanks for the reply and i can see she is all over it she hasn't stop calling me ever since I spoke to her it's been non stop she wants that money! Lol

I ended up switching to McAdoo. Hope he does me well. I am scared of the drains! :( I really don't want to get them but it's up to Mc if I do or don't.

I wAs scared of drains to but after having them I was so glad I did and I wish I had come home w mine I think I would have healed quicker....

A lot of people say drains are better but I'm just scared of them getting stuck or getting dragged on something and having to lay on them or if they are painful.... :'( and they are so long, so much of it inside the body. If it is the best thing though I guess I just have to follow doc's orders.

Ok. I'm thinking of facing my fear and getting them because everybody says they are better than none. Less chance of seromas and such.

Hi hon. Type in Cortes' name in the search box and follow him as a doc. Once you do that you'll be continuously updated on everything Cortes. Best wishes love.

About to make my down payment with Vanity for Dr. Fisher. Jessica is my coordinator. I am extremely excited because this means it's actually going to happen. I want a surgery date in May 2015 *fingers crossed*.

Has anyone used a medical loan/credit card to pay for surgery? If so any Pros and Cons?

Also, Recovery Houses, which is affordable and gives good care? Because of the reviews on Vanity I'm scared to stay there.

Thinking of applying for a loan so I don't use up all my money and then have nothing in the case of an emergency. Has anyone used a medical credit card or loan? Which is best?

If your credit is good, I would definitely recommend Care Credit. Depending on how much you have saved, go with a no interest plan that you have to pay off in a certain amount of time. Ortega has a 6 month no interest. Or, if you can't meet that payment, use a longer plan that usually has between 9-14% APR. If you pay it off before the allotted time, you do not have to pay interest on your total surgery price.

Thanks Doll. I just decided to go out of pocket and pray and hope nothing negative happens that will supersede the savings I have. Vanity no longer takes Care Credit so thats a no go and all the others have fees attached and too high interest rates.
