Hi

My mind was made up two weeks back that I was not going to get a BA done with THG after all the bad things I have heard about them on here and other web sites. But what I was told by a lady who worked there and has since left (she did not go into the reasons why) was that The Hospital Group is going bust if you parden the pun. Not sure if this is another place effected by the credit crunch or just bcus people like myself have truned then down. Anyhow the girl said I made the right move not booking with them and confirmed what other girls on this site with bad stories have been saying. she said its much worse and more peeps are are beeinf lost every day. anyway thought i would let you girls know jus in case you are pondering about a BA with this group. keep well away

I feel very sorry for the girls who are still trying to get the boched BAs rectified. I was told it was best to sue them as soon as you can as some girls have been taken up the garden path by THGs legal and complaints department so to speak by stalling them so much that peeps could not sue or them. not sure how its done. anyhow get suing girls as time could be running out.

I think every companyin the UK is on edge at the moment- if anyone is worried about re ops or planned ops - i wouldnt read too much into them going bust - thesethings do take a lot of time to happen.
If they do go bust it is usually the customers that looses out but again if anyone is booked in over the nextfew months, i doubt anything will happen this soon so you should be ok with your procedure x

FYI 'The Hospital Group' is what it says, a group specialising in all sorts of procedures, just because you can't get a mortgage extension to fund a boob job, doesnt mean the company is going out of business! I dont work for the hospital group myslef but the 'lady who works / worked there' has a case of sour grapes!

I don't think that can be true, I know some girls that work there and they are not going to be out of work, my opp was 2 weeks ago and I have been back to see the girls at the clinic and there was no talk of going bust. The bad stories don't seem right to me, when I was in hospital it was very busy and as I was leaving more arrived and everyone at breakfast was really happy with there treatment. I would recommend the hospital group to my family and best friend.

I still can not find out how to check if he is qualified - i know he is not a Plastic surgeon in the UK (just a general doctor) but if anyone knows how to check any of the EU databases can they let me know?

He may be qualified somewhere else but i dont know how to check or how to find out what another countries standards are? with most surgeons there are international bodies and european bodies that they also become members of - im struggling with plastic surgeons.

your mates need to start looking for a new job Hun. I've heard the same on the market grape vine with share prices going down faster then a 70s porn star, and the hospital group are not the only ones.
Even middle management wont be told until the last minuet. I noticed on its web site that the company is giving 0% finance agreements for procedures, a very desperate move in todays economic environment, must be trying to cash in before the big bang

hi, i read your strory but I did not hear about thg going bust.
I canlelled my operation because I found from anne19809 that a surgeon Mr Sfosa is not a fully qualified surgeon, in fact I checked it out as anne suggested and that was really true!
this company employ a cheap surgeon? why he is not qualified? this is awful, and they want us being cut from a butcher?

everybody need to be informed, and I will forward my complain with gmc and health commission as many others doing, about this doctor sforsa

"Omg "

Just saw somthing on my local TV news about this will try and get a link good news to bad rubbish I say

THATS FANTASTIC NEWS! let us know what you find out xxx

something about having to write to creditors or something to get things back, it was the back end of the story, will keep an eye out for the next one

they go bust, no compensation, remember! x

" "

That would be enough compensation for - i hate to say it but it isnt about the money for me, its about my life xxx

" "

Thats good hun, you do deserve some compo though for what they've done, i mean it is your face x

Its not just my face hun, it is my life, my parents feel like they have lost a daughter, my friends have a friend missing because of this, i have lost myself - the other site has given me some hope tho - i might also go to Africa for a few months (charity work) get some perspective on life, they are setting up a new hospital and i have medical/business experience so i might go an volunteer for a while xxx

" "

im glad lyb has given you some good advice, follow it, those moderators know their stuff and have been in your shoes. I think you're going to be alright hun

Hun - the support on this site from people in similar situation has really helped - you especially. I cant thank you enough - when my face is fixed i owe you a very large drink!

I'll hold ya to that lol x

" "

You better! x

" "

Any more signs of them going bust yet? has anyone heard anything?

"The writing is on the wall "

well, put it this way. No one thought Woolworth's would just disappear like it did a few months ago. No one would buy its depts and now a store that I used to go in as a kid has gone, they could not even sell it for a pound. lots of people have gone there to buy the goods at cheap prices so when you buy something from the store this weekend who do you go to when it stops working in the 14 day refund policy

The writing is on the wall for The Hospital Group.

ive booked my ba with why go abroad for surgery which is part of the same group, and paid £500 deposit, my surgery is booked 4 9th march, since ive booked it all ive done is read bad things about thg! typical
