I paid cash for my surgery in Monterray, MX with Dr. Rodrigues $7900, and he does fills for I believe two years, but since it is not feasible to fly from West Virginia to MX for a fill, I plan to go to my Cigna approved doctor and have the fills done with Dr. Anaz in Fairfax. I paid for the surgery because I was not the full 100 lbs overweight, and I would have gotten there without intervention.

I also paid on my own, but I did it in Monterray, Mexico with Dr Rodriques. It was $7900 for everything except airfare. Since I am from West Virginia, I will need to also pay for fills, which I have not done yet. My surgery was 10/1 this year.
