  1. Hey hopin4slv,

    I arranged everything myself. I couldn't do it privately in Edmonton, so I would've had to travel anyway, so I opted for Dr. Aceves as he is way more experienced than any surgeons in my area when it comes to the sleeve. The cost at the time was $8750 + flight. I also had to buy Nexium for the first 3 months after surgery (I got it here, except for my stupid pharma insurance didn't cover it!). All other things were covered.

     

    I believe the $8750 was a promo price - it was very slow when I got my surgery done, Dr. Aceves does up to 3 surgeries a day, and the day of my surgery was the only day out of the 3 I stayed that he had 3 patients. I believe the regular price is $9500, but the promo might still be on.

     

    I don't have any reservations about the care I received, so I'd definitely recommend looking at Dr. Aceves if you are thinking of going abroad.
