    The lady that worked in the front office at 40/42 was arrested for embezzlement charges at the company last week.! She altered records after we paid to take the money. I seriouly hope she did not rip any of us off too bad. It is expensive as it is to go to Dr. Ricco office. I hope I only paid for the work that was done and not extra to feed her pocket, but who is to know? I trusted her everytime I handed her my Credit Card. Everyone should check their CC statements and work done to make sure you were not overcharged.

    how would you know if you are overcharged? I have never seen a price list for different services.

    Exactly, I always just paid what the girls told me I owed. I have no idea, and sometimes they wouldn't give me a receipt of the work done, just a cc receipt.

    An employee of The Riccobene Companies has been arrested on embezzlement charges. Crystal Hollis Stephenson, 39, of Garner had worked in the front office of the business. After checking patients out of the office, she is accused of altering computer records in order to keep payments made to the business. Company officials conducted an audit and determined approximately $700 was missing. Stephenson reportedly repaid the business $743. She was arrested February 20 and charged with felonious larceny by an employee. She no longer works for the company, authorities said.

    I was in there the other day to have my teeth cleaned and overheard Dr Ricco say he was going to 'tan' (at the place a few doors down).... I just thought that was kinda funny. Does he really need to tan? :lol: I would think that if you're in the health business - you wouldn't do things like that, knowing the health risks? JMHO.

    Yes, he needs to look good. Tanning only affects his health, not his patients.

    If the news report is accurate, she actually gave back more than she stole. She lost $43 on the deal.

    Actually, it said "approximately" $700. So maybe she owed and paid back $743. Don't know why they didn't just say that then...?

    I've never met him but most people look better w/ a little suntan. I don't mean real, real dark (like Ken likes) LOL but a little tan looks better than pasty white.

    Yep, used to think the same thing when I was younger but not anymore since the wrinkles around the eyes appeared. Not pasty white, but a soft, healthy glow is what I'm after these days.

    Girl, that's what facial peels are for...LOL I'll be 40 in less than 2 weeks, get really dark (w/o trying-it's that cherokee) and the wrinkles are just starting to show, I'm going to wait a little longer before I get one.8) I get it from my Mom, who will be 77 in a couple of weeks and everyone can't believe her age.
