Testimonials and Reviews
My best 30 minutes at the doctor's office: CareCredit helped me pay for plastic surgery to remove excess skin after my dramatic weight loss. Visits to any physicians' office when I was significantly heavier, and prior to reconstruction, were always a lengthy, stressful, tiring, and sometimes even shameful experience for me. Now, I am excited to see my doctor and his team to not only brag about my new healthy lifestyle but to receive flawless lab work and a clean bill of health every time!

Beginning at the end of 2012, I have worked to lose over 100 pounds. With that amount of weight loss, comes a significant amount of extra loose skin that will not go away. Unfortunately, insurance will not pay for skin removal surgery and I would never have been able to afford it this soon had CareCredit not been available. With my CareCredit account I have been able to get the surgery I very much needed sooner than I ever thought I would have been able to. Thank you for helping me!

I had struggled with medications and being 50 pounds overweight. CareCredit gave me the ability to pay for a health program where I lost over 30 pounds in a few months and continued to manage my eating and exercise. My health was so improved that I was able eliminate my prescription medications.

I'm an RN, in 2009 I hurt my back caring for a patient and required a spinal fusion. I had a few dark years suffering with chronic pain and depression. I gained a ton of weight. Finally, I hit rock bottom and started to change my life one day at a time. Through proper diet and supplementation, I lost 90 lbs. and started gradually becoming more active. CareCredit has allowed me to put the exclamation point on my transformation by permitting me to get a tummy tuck and start my life anew ... TY!!!
