So I'm definitely going with Ortega, it's confirmed for August 28th.
I can deal with the pressure to pay at vanity

Is any one going around the same time?

I also thought about going to vanity however the Cordinator kept calling me like every 30 minutes supposedly they had a special on TT for only $3000 yeah too good to be true, I have been doing a lot of RS reading and made up my mind. Dr. Ortega it is :) good luck on your journey.

Now I'm confused - Dr Fisher or Dr Ortega

So why do I feel like the doctors in Miami are all in competition with each other? After Vanity not getting back to me since Monday and.... their customer service is not great I made up my mind that I was going to stick to the original Dr that I wanted to go with... DR ORTEGA.
So! One of the girls from Vanity call me to tell me that Dr fisher is running a promo for 3,800. Which is ridiculously cheap.. I think I'm a bit scared to go for a procedure which is so cheap... they say you get what you pay for right? Am I the only one who thinks this price is to good to be true?
Don't get me wrong I have been tempted to go to vanity but I do not think that its the right thing to do.
Girls, is this normal for vanity to fall off then try jump back on you with a cheaper price??
My bae is also telling me to stick with Ortega... I feel like these two are battling against each other lool.
They both do get work but Ortega has better customer service which I am really big on.
Help me guys do you have a good or bad experience with either of these doctors?

I havent personally experienced this (im still in researching phases lol) but when I look at reviews for both Vanity and Spectrum the ladies complain about customer service. From what I have read the coordinators from both just want to make sales so sometimes they make up their own rules. Like what is the deposit amount, and so called specials. Just be careful and have everything in writing.

OK!! im superrrrrr!!!! Excited!! I wish i could do it tomorrow lol.. emailed Vivian and will be putting a Dep down tomorrow.
sorry for the typos in the pervious posts i was on my phone.
Is any one going in August at the end of the start of Jan 2016?
im considering adding pictures but i have to many tattoos lol...
A few reviews said Dr Mel is very blunt, i dont mind that as i am also quiet straight to the point and expect others to be too.. so if your a sensitive person i think you might want to consider another doc.

But!!! with that said! Mels work is great and is worth the straight to the point attitude :)

Hi, I'm also suck between both Dr. Fisher or Dr ortega. I've seen both for consults and got quoted. Of course dr fisher is a bit more expensive but his work is awesome. I've also read about Vanity's costumer service being not so good. So I'm quite confused myself on who to choose.

Hey, I'm definitely going to be going with Dr Ortega. Vanity keep calling and no one is speaking English so I'm definitely not going there, I don't like to feel pressure. I haven't seen any bad reviews really on him so this will be who I'm sticking with. When are you planning on doing your surgery and request to speak to Vivian at spectrums

Hey there congrats on making ur first step in the process...i have my bbl scheduled with dr ortega on may 1st and i can't wait, when i had my consultation he told me i was a good candidate for the bbl(probably cuz i got enough fat...lol) and that he could give me the look i wanted which was full and round....his office was packed when i went which showed me that other people liked his work....i believe his work is good and his price is affordable he quoted me $4500 so now i just waiting for my day but i am super excited. ...hope u go with dr ortega but if not good luck on ur journey.....

I was quoted the same for Dr. Ortega but I have to gain 15 to 20 pounds before I am able to get my bbl. I will most likely stay with Dr Ortega because his price includes messages and garment and Dr. Fisher price at $5,000 doesn't include anything. Good luck on your journey, I will definitely be following yours since I will be getting my bbl after yours.

Prettygirl30, I would defo advise you if you want a really big butt to gain wait you don't want to do it if you don't have at least 5 liters of fat to transfer. . Just eat lots of food lol.. when was you planning on going?
