    Since you are paying out of pocket it should be a lot faster...Im going thru my insurance and it took a little over 6months. I've seen some posts on here on individuals that pay their own way and end up getting their surgery within weeks.

    My only advise make sure you don't rush into it unless you are full prepared.

    Good Luck!
