How Much Was Your Surgery?

I am just curious what everyone was paying for their surgery. I have seen such a wide variety of cost from 10,000 to 65,000. I know those that pay out of pocket are less expensive. I am just wondering if there are large regional differences. But I am going through Anthem Blue Cross and live in Colorado. Thanks for sharing.

Well I am having mine in Mexico so its only costing me 8700. There are others in mexico cheaper but I am going to the doctor that I feel comfortable with, and I met personally. I chose Mexico at first cause I am a self pay without insurance. After my research, I became so comfortable with my doctor that even if I had insurance I would still be going to my doctor.

Thanks for the replies. Are these prices with insurance or self pay?

$18500 self pay. Bay area, California

I just checked my claim history today so far is at 34k however insurance is covering all it besides my deductiable of 3k... I couldn't believe how much it's actually adding up to be..

I live in California, Dr. Cirangle quoted me around $18K so I'm going to have it done in Louisiana by Dr. Lavin. Their quote is $13,600. BTW - I'm self pay.

Cash price in Amarillo, TX is $16,000

Self pay in Mx with Garcia for $5000. It was the best $5k I have ever spent! Down 75.4 lbs in 13 wks:)

12,000 cash pay in Kansas City
