Tim Boon TLC

Founder / TLC (Total Lifestyle Credit)

“At least 1 in 3 patients ask about alternate payment options for a treatment and 1,700 patients applied with TLC in March alone.”

I am hugely passionate about the medical sector working with some amazing doctors and clinics – so many people have moved away from private health insurance and many more self-funded patients are looking at getting cosmetic/medical treatments. Making sure they find the right doctor rather than shop around over price point is so important. In order to help people achieve their preferred treatments, I started a Consumer Loan Company about 17 years ago, which I successfully sold in 2016. Three years later, I started my new patient funding platform, Total Lifestyle Credit, or TLC.

What makes us different

A big invoice can be daunting for clients and can often be a deal breaker. When funding is easily accessible and affordable it is a “win-win” for both clinic and client. TLC provides patients a direct channel to any medical/ cosmetic clinic in Australia. We offer a complete in-house and stress free service. We want to provide our wealth of knowledge to our clients by assisting them in finding the right clinic or business and empowering them with information and support. TLC is specifically designed for clients undergoing medical and cosmetic treatments as well as any associated costs including hospital, anaesthetist, after-care etc. We can also cover simple non-surgical treatments like injectables, bleph lifts etc, meaning we can potentially help a wide range of a cosmetic business’ clientele.

How TLC works

At least 1 in 3 patients ask about alternate payment options for a treatment, and 1,700 patients applied with TLC in March alone. Providing patients with a solution results in a higher conversion. We fund patients from $2,001 – $50,000, and for practitioners, there is no cost involved. A simple 30-second patient point form can be added to your practice website and or team’s email signatures. Patients

are funded within 24 hours of approval and your practice receives 100% of the total care treatment plan upfront. TLC provides your practice with marketing merchandise to promote patient payment plan options, and most importantly, we allocate a dedicated account manager to your practice, meaning there is always someone to help should you have any questions.

Exceptional customer service

TLC is affiliated with 1,600 businesses nationally, such as Dr Anoop Rastogi, Dr Kourosh Tavakoli, Dr Michael Zacharia, Dr Craig Rubinstein, Dr Vlad Milovic, Inigo Cosmetic, Cosmetic Avenue, Northern Beaches Plastic, Hunter Plastic Surgery, Dr Anh Nguyen, AMOS, One Cosmetic, Sunshine Vein Clinic, SJOG Hospitals, just to name a few. At TLC we pride ourselves on exceptional customer service, responsible lending and supporting our fantastic clients and clinics countrywide, helping their businesses run more profitably by helping patients secure the treatments they want and need. TLC also provides bespoke commercial funding for innovative Medical Device businesses like BTL nationally.

What clients are saying about TLC

“Since 2016, we have noticed a downturn in patient conversion for high-end treatments. It wasn’t until this legislative change regarding offering payment plans to patients that we have finally seen an increase!

Choosing to go with TLC was a simple decision: We have known Tim for over 10 years and of his extensive experience and understanding of patient requirements, plus the all-inclusive nature of TLC’s funding options is exactly what our patients were looking for.

The cost of everything involved in the procedure is included, unlike with other platforms. That includes anaesthetic and post-operative garments all the way through to accommodation and travel for the patient and their support person if they’re coming from interstate.

We have seen a dramatic change in our business after partnering with TLC and could not be happier.” – Dr Vlad Milovic, Plastic Surgeon
