I would disagree based on my personal experience with your business.
I would not recommend your services to any physician

Larry,
I was originally quoted roughly a 10% rate per the contract with Doctorfunds.com and Greg LeMay.
The rates quoted afterwards were in the 24 to 35% range for a much lower amount and much shorter term. It was also very difficult to get the actually rates. They kept quoting monthly payments and would hesitate whenever I asked what the rates were.
I have left multiple messages and emails with Doctorfunds which have not been returned. I was able to actually get Greg LeMay on the phone somehow last week and he promised that he would be returning my origination fee since the loan had not funded within the terms of the contract. As of today, I have not received the check, nor has Mr. LeMay returned any other phone calls.
Draw your own conclusions.
-John

Just an update about Doctorfunds.com and their BBB rating.
Over the past 2 weeks there have been 2 more complaints that are registered against Doctorfunds.com for a total of 24 in 36 months.

Interesting post John.
Did you get your origination fee back yet? This whole senerio doesn't seem right.

I believe I have also been taken down the road of the old "bait and switch." I was told that I could have a loan at 8.5% for 10 years. I was pushed off to an outside loan "guru." This guy has no idea of the terms that I was given originally. The new guy is asking me to look for my own funding through people I have used before. I have been trying to get LeMay's people to return my calls for almost 3 weeks now. All of this after giving up my consulting fee...

Hello Justin and John.
You are definately not alone. I was offered the same as you; 8.5% for a 10 year unsecured term loan to consilidate my debt. I was attempting to secure $210K. I sent in my $5K "origination fee" of which another $5K would be due at signing. I was told in an email from Greg that this whole process would take approximately 2 weeks.
After I sent in my 5K, Greg and his crew became almost completely absent. They rarely returned emails or answered my phone calls. I would sometimes call there 20 times in a day and get someone almost by accident. They would tell me "We'll look right into this and get back to you later today." 3-4 days would go by with no return phone calls.
It has been 6 weeks now and I still don't have a loan. I've been told everything from "Matt left the company so I'm behind", "I had pneumonia", "there was a bad storm", ect..
Currently I'm being told that my loan is with "Mike Valdez" at Evolution Practice solutions. This guy actually picks up his phone, but no real action has taken place on my loan. I'm worried that his email ends in "applyforworkingcapital.com ". Last I checked, the web site's contact phone number was dead.
I have contacted the FBI for possible wire fraud, the SEC for possible fraud, and also the BBB. I have found the BBB to be useless. After letting them know of the situation, their only resolution was to sue Greg in small claims court. They have all these complaints but still have an A- rating... I don't understand this.
Justin and John, I hope that you will do me a favor and follow up with these organizations yourself.
I was originally scared to write on an open forum like this out of fear that I might get screwed... guess what.. I'm getting screwed anyways.
I do have a small speck of hope that this will all end peacefully with a loan handed to me but with all the events unfolding now.. I doubt it.
I have asked Greg on numerous occasions that I want my $5k back. He fails to acknowlege it and just keeps telling me to be patient.. I'm tired of patience.
Tell me if this "unrelated" story looks familiar:
http://www.usdoj.gov/usao/md/Public-Affairs/p...
I will keep this forum updated as to how this unfolds. I hope that others will post their stories.

Another avenue that I have thought of trying would be the Texas Attorney General. They have a fraud and scams department. I would be happy with my money being returned as well. I have even asked for a receipt for the loan origination fee. This cannot even be given to me. I have been given the big storm story as well. Steve Arbanas is the person that is supposedly now working on my account. It was previously Matthew Estep. I have not been told why Matthew is no longer with the company. I would be willing to contact the FBI. Would you be willing to contact the Texas Attorney General?

I'll call the Texas Attorney General today. Your wire funds transfer sheet should be enough to prove you sent it. Also check and save any and all emails from this guy. They wrote back to me and confirmed that they recieved my wire transfer.
Odd story though.. I tried to contact Greg yesterday and dialed the regular 800 number. Rather than Steve's voice being on the voice mail it was Greg's voice. I wonder if Steve has left the company as well?
I think the more people that are made aware of this company's workings the better.

I didn't wire transfer. I sent a cashier's check. I didn't want them having my bank account information just in case it was a scam. I have never dialed the 800 number. I always dial their direct lines.

Justin and Tom,
Thanks for posting.
Justin - I received the same response from Greg Lemay at DoctorFunds about the delay in refund. 1) Big storm in December 2) Matt left company in January, etc...
Here's what I've done:
1) Filed complaint with the Dallas BBB 2 weeks ago. I followed up with them yesterday and they hadn't received a response back from Greg LeMay or DoctorFunds.
2) Spoke with my bank about possible wire fraud so they are contacting Bank of America. Also sent about 1 hour on the phone with B of A to let them know I thought they may have an account holder potentially committing wire fraud.
3)Trying to figure out civil action. Good news is my wife is an attorney, so she's walking me through some of the process, but we're in California, so it may require a trip to Dallas to actually file in small claims.
4) Other good news - I do have a college buddy in Dallas that is also an attorney - but mostly IP/patent. I have a call into him about the situation. I would think if there are several physicians that there may be a better likelihood of an attorney taking the case. I'll check with him about other avenues to pursue
Tom - let me know what response you get with complain against Greg LeMay and Doctorfunds.com with the Texas Attorney General

You might have another to join you. Like those above I talked to Greg LeMay after sending them an inquiry. Greg seems very professional and comes across as somebody who has been doing the loan game for a long time.
I went through the process and was sent this message "Our Credit Committee has given the OK to move forward on the loan amount below and has chosen the underwriter to do your loan. They have given us the Green Light to move forward on your loan". I was sent a document with specific loan amounts, interest, and payment terms.
So, I've wired the $2, 500. Since then, I've had no communication from Greg, but have been contacted by a guy named "Mike Valdez" at Evolution Practice solutions (same as an above commenter). He tried to sell me some old computers - hmmmm!
Who knows, maybe we are panicking before this plays out. I'll keep watch at this site and post any news I get both good and bad.

Well looks like we all got the same problems. I was getting angry reading this because the same thing has happened to me. I sent them the fee well over 40 days ago, and have not heard a thing! Everyone has vanished. I am trying to get a refund. I have told them to cancel my loan application and I need a refund ASAP. If there are enough people for a class action please let me know, thanks.

Unfortunately... Welcome to the forum Mark and Wayne. If you could do me a favor and start off by contacting the Dallas FBI, the SEC, Texas Attorney General and Bank of America and tell them if your business dealing with Greg.(You can attempt to make a case with the BBB just to get another complaint registered)
It may help press this thing to a closing.
If we have to perform a class action suit, it would probably be best to wait and see how the FBI handles this first.
I've completely given up all hope that my loan will go through at all. I'm now out for revenge.

Hi this is Michael Skoncey. I met "Alex" and he wanted me to design a website for him. I met him signed an agreement with him. Not 3 days after I meet with him, he is wanting his money back (well you know as I do that it takes a week to design a professional website). Well that 3 days later I had already started and completed a couple pages on his site. I had to have spent 10 hours on his site, and he wants his money back. He threatens me with the police that If I do not pay him by wednesday (which was 2 days after) that he would go to the police. I respond quickly telling him that I have spent 10hours on his site and have completed a couple pages, but I agree to refund him. I refunded him on wednesday (this was the last day he gave me to refund him, I did in fact refund him, and I do have proof of this). But, he reports this on tuesday, when he gave me until wednesday to refund him.
I do not understand why he did this when I did refund him by wednesday, and I paid him through paypal and have a copy of the refund receipt.
Why would you do this to me?

This is Michael Skoncey. I told 'Alex' that I design websites (which I do). These different email adresses and websited are my clients, that I have done web design work for.
If you wanted to you could contact them and they would all tell you I designed websites for them.
I am not a scammer, I simply design websites.
Why would you do this to me Alex? I refunded your money!

DO NOT PUT YOUR SELF AS A VICTIM...

"This is Michael Skoncey. I found this link:
http://www.topix.com/forum/city/pittsburgh-pa...
You are telling people that I have several different email adresses and websites, that is a lie! You know that I developed other people's websites.
I also paid you your refund by wednesyday as agreed, this complaint was filed on tuesday, the day before my final day to send the refund.
I have proof of refund, I also have proof I started work on your website (10hours). I also have proof that these are not my websites and email adresses.
I advise you to take down those two complaints, IMMEDIATELY.
If you do not I will be forced to take this into legal action.

Yesterday
I have also been trying to reach Greg LeMay to refund my money of $2500.00
Greg, I just left you a message so you know who I am.
Please send me the refund, I don't think you can give me the loan since it has about 6 months.
These posts and blogs were taken from a site that went down a year ago. Greg Lemay thought all his scamming, lies, and sneaky tactics would have went away. I was able to save most of the postings.
