My son received a one inch cut over one eye near the eyebrow.
I went to this cosmetic surgeon, on the advice of my dermatologist.
I asked the surgeon how much the repair would cost. He told me not to worry that he would take what the insurance pays.
He sutured my son's cut, which took 10 minutes, without exaggeration. He sutured it alone without an assistant, in a room that just had a table and no other equipment. The cut took about 9 stitches.
I recieved a bill that stated he received $2700.00 dollars from the insurance. Which I thought was excessive. I continue to read the bill and he states I owe another $5000.00.in total he wants $7700.00 dollars! For a ten minute procedure, that required 9 stitches. I was flabbergasted!
I told him he was crazy and that I would not pay another dime. I also said that with the $2700.00 I thought he was grossly overpaid. Forget $7700.00!!
Well he has now put me in collection and threatining to ruin my credit. I guess I have no recourse to this unscrupulous practice. My credit will be ruined. But to everyone out there considering to use his service. Beware, he is a rip-off!!!
