Blossom Bariatrics. I paid 15,000 for my surgery, but if you have insurance, it's usually about $6,500-ish. Look up their fast track program. They provide drivers, hotel, testing, surgery, and iv therapy. There is other stuff, too, but I can't remember off the top of my head, but they're all fantastic and great to work with.

This is going to be all out of pocket cause I don’t have any health problems and I’ve already lost some weight on my own used to be 264lbs and now went down to 189lbs had a baby and now I’m 209lbs. I don’t think I would qualify through any insurance but currently have medical

Just had my VSG done in Vegas. Great experience. Called them 3 weeks ago and I was scheduled right away. They do all the labs the day before surgery. Everyone is very nice. My first post so hope it is helpful.

What’s the center called and how much did you pay for your surgery? I am in contact with a weight loss agency who gave me Dr. Bernie Hanna info in LV NV.

I’m paying out of pocket through Blossom Bariatric and it’s $9499 bc they are estimating they can get our insurance to pay the difference up to their $15k fee. The deal with Blossom is if your insurance doesn’t pay the difference then you only pay the amount they quoted you. If you’re 100% cash it’s $15k.

I was looking into that too, I was contacted by an agency this morning and gave me options in Tijuana, Baja Mexico. Also Las Vegas. But Mexico way cheaper. Do you think staying in the US is a better choice? And mine will be 100% out of pocket.

which country are you in as the process is very different

I live in California and it will be 100% out of pocket since I don’t meet any of their requirements except my BMI is 31.

Did anybody pay out of pocket? How much was it?

Hello,

I am looking into how to start my journey. I don’t know where to go or to contact? Could you please help?
