  1. I will keep you and this situation in my prayers. Just remember that everything happens for a reason. Keep us posted on your progress.
  2. this is all great information! Thanks for sharing!
  3. You are the second person to mention him and this price to me. I think I am gonna check him out a little bit more! That price is not much more than two of the docs I was looking at in Mexico.
  4. Cool....I will check it out. Thanks!
  5. I am in Ponchatoula. Where is Dr. French at?
  6. I live about 45 minutes outside of Baton Rouge and have been referred to Dr. B. by an acquaintance. I am still waiting to see if my insurance will approve surgery, however, I am pretty sure that WLS is an exclusion to my policy. Can anyone tell me what Dr. B's cash price is? Just curious. I am also considering going to Mexico, but would much rather do it close to home.... Thanks!
  7. I personally know someone who used Dr. Bellanger for her surgery. He was the first in the state to do the RNY. She told me that she paid $13K for hers, two years ago.
  8. Can anybody give me testimonials about doctors in the New Orleans/Baton Rouge/Lake Charles areas that have done VSG??? And if you were cash paying, how much did it cost you? Thanks in advance!
  9. I am glad to hear all the positive things about Dr. Aceves. He is one of the docs I am considering if my insurance will not approve for me to have it here in the states. (still waiting for an answer) Now, I too, am thinking about going alone.
