Approx. Cost in U.S. for self-pay



Recommended Posts

There are at least two doctors in Colorado that will do it for under 10K. My doctor, Dr. Kirshenbaum of lapbandrockies.com is great. $9950 for everything, done in the USA - hospital, anesthesia, etc. He has done over 800 surgeries and only two slipped bands to date. Also, you get free fills for the first three months, then for a discount thereafter. Lots of information on his website.

Check out "True Results" in Dallas Texas. $9900 for cash pay and it includes one year of aftercare. I used Dr. Fox and really like him, he is strict and stays with you on your journey. All of the PA's are always talking about how Dr. Fox does things....they really respect him and how he follows up with his patients. I did have to pay for a couple of lab things at the beginning and that was about 6 or 7 hundred dollars. The procedure took place at Richardson Surgery Center...the surgery was out patient but Dr. Fox has all out of town patients to spend the night in a hotel up the street.... the hotel was included in my price.

If you would like to know anything else please PM me.

I have lost 168 lbs since January of 2000. I lost 78 lbs from January 2000 to April of 2010 on my own. I have lost 90 since my lapband surgery on April 13, 2010. I would like to lose 20 - 25 more.

Good Luck on your journey,

Stagegirl

Dr. Aguila in Tampa, Fl has a great self pay program. Around $5,000 up front and the hospital finances the remainder of the $10,650 total cost with no credit check with payments of $208 per month for 2 years. This is the best self pay arrangement in the US, as far as I can tell. He is doing my band tomorrow.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
