The complainant has labeled our company as a pyramid scheme and may be personally liable for these false claims. We may be pursuing legal solutions to these false claims.

The following are rebuttals to the complainants false statements outlined in her report:

1)      Complainant States: They ask for my credit card and charged me before even going over anything with me.

Rebuttal: False Statement. Complainant called our center on Wednesday the day before coming in to purchase the program and ask for information on the Coupon that she found online. Tori proceeded to inform and explain all the details that were obvious to see on the coupon website. Tori told her that she would need to purchase the coupon online if she was interested and if she had trouble getting it to go thru she could come in and purchase at the center. Complainant said she was researching other options and would think about it. The next morning on Thursday the complainant called again and said decided to go with us and wanted to make an appointment and get started. Tori ask if she had purchased the coupon, she replied no she would pay at the center and wanted to come in today. She came in for her appointment and was ask how she was going to pay for the discounted services. She pulled her card and paid the $100 dollars that was discussed with her the day before.

2)      Complainant States: You need to buy this and that and this and more of this.

Rebuttal: False Statement. Tori explained to her some of the diet aids/products that we offer all of our clients to help the client reach their goal weight. At no time did she say you have to buy these. Most clients understand the value of these aids and decide on their own if they want to purchase them. These are recommendations and are proven to support weight loss.

3)      Complainant States: She says well you can come back next Thursday to talk to the Physician about maybe getting a jump start on the appetite suppressants. I said OK, the doctor isn’t here today? Not until later. Ah OK. We have to do blood work another day. Hmm okay.

Rebuttal: This is Company Protocol: The client must fast 12 hours before blood work can be done. The client was scheduled for the following morning for her blood draw. Clients are scheduled to see the Doctor by appointment after a week of detox, this allows for the results of the blood work to be received, the client file to be assembled with all the medical test results in it so the doctor can review before the appointment. The detox diet is only for the first week. This cleanses your body of toxins and stabilizes your blood sugar levels, jump starts your metabolism to prepare you for your new approved diet. During the doctor visit, the doctor will discuss any medical issues you may have concerning your weight loss program. Appetite suppressants may be prescribed if the doctor deems them necessary after reviewing all medical tests.

4)      Complainant States: I was like oh so now I have to purchase a ton of more things. In my mind I was thinking this is not a deal, but I continued. I told her I already paid for it. ( if she would have told me this prior, I would not have been ok with prepaying with no con )

Rebuttal: False Statement. As outlined above the complainant discussed with us on two prior phone calls what she would receive from the discounted coupon. Also, the coupon she wanted to purchase detailed what services were provided. Coupon services are required to be prepaid.To say that it was already paid for it is a false statement.

5)      Complainant States: I never even seen a doctor. I want a refund. He called me Young lady. How dare you talk down to me, I am an educated women. He didn’t even know the price of EKG. No carbs, UM DUH. He continued to yell at me.

Rebuttal: False Statement. Client was informed that her doctor appointment would be after the first week of detox. By protocol, the doctors order requires that all medical testing is received and reviewed before the appointment. My statement to her over the phone was “Young lady you need to calm down” , this was stated twice because she was screaming in the phone and would not allow for any type of real professional discussion . I don’t know how saying young lady is equal to downgrading her. Our company does not sell EKG’s separately, our cost for a regular priced program fee consist of a lump sum price containing all medical services provided. I told her that so far she was provided with approximately $200.00 in services and the signed  contract that was explained to be nonrefundable after services started. She was completely unprofessional. The detox diet that has been posted on this site is proprietary does not state No Carbs Only. It is very specific to what foods and quantities are allowed during the detox week. There are a lot of foods that cannot be taken other than carbs. This is proven to work as we have many customers that are happy with the results. The only yelling that was going on was from the complainant. 

We at Physicians Weight Loss Centers are appalled by the statements and the anger this person displayed and filed on this site. We want to assure you that we will not accept these false statements and are saddened that we have to respond to someone that only wants to hurt our reputation because they didn’t get their way instead of a professional resolution based on facts.
