Capital One exits cosmetic surgery financing

Capital One is pulling out of the health care financing market -- removing one financing option for medical services. As of April 10, 2009, Capital One is not accepting any new installment loan applications for cosmetic surgery, or any other medical expenses.

If you already have an approved Capital One loan, you're OK - that won't be affected.

While understandable from a business point of view, it's too bad. Capital One provided a helpful service, and their loan plan was one of the more popular ones with many of our patients.
