Hmmmmm, that seems to be an issue with the financial department and not the surgeon. Also, she seems a bit "referral" happy. I looked at her videos and she is changing some of them from "longer term vsg" to "Aslimmerme", not sure how credible her word is. Take what you find important from the video. Personally, I have spoken to both groups and am torn honestly. Dr Maytorena has an excellent track records with little "gas pains" and zero deaths. However, Aslimmerme have excellent doctors too. I was schedualed to go with Dr. Maytorena about 6 months back, but money troubles came along. Now he's so popular you're lucky to get in. The lady in the video said that the Dr. Montano worked side by side with Dr. Maytorena and he's also a trauma surgeon that's done thousands of bariactric surgeries. Decisions....decisions.
