Complaint Review: Top Surgeons Or Weight Loss Centers

DO NOT EVER patronize Top Surgeons or Weight Loss Centers; they are doing many illegal things in there and should not be operating as a surgery center. In fact, the person who runs the place has had his license revoked for cheating and also for insurance fraud. I know FOR a FACT that they are performing insurance fraud everyday. I have seen it with my own eyes. Furthermore, it is such a dirty place, the surgeons are severely overworked and underpaid, the man who runs it is clearly on drugs (he twitches, stutters, and talks so fast that no one can understand him), and it is just simply a cattle call of a plastic surgery center. I felt so badly for the cash paying patients who had their surgery there, they would have to sit in the waiting room for hours and if a insurance patient came in the door they would be taken straight back into the office because they make four times the amount on insurance patients versus the cash patients, they only see dollar signs in their eyes, not people. When a patient goes into a room we (employees) were instructed to get them to have as many procedures as possible (even a ingrown toenail was considered surgery!), or if they didnt weigh enough for the surgery to qualify for their insurance to pay for it to tell them to gain weight! That is completely illegal to tell someone to gain weight in order for theyre insurance to cover a surgery. I have seen botched surgeries, I know of a patient dying on the operating table because they were operating in a center with no license. These people are so money driven that a human life means nothing, they will change theyre name and open a new location to hide and stay in business. WHY are these people allowed to stay in business? I worked there, I know what has gone on, it is deplorable.
