Life is Awesome

Hi Margaret. I'm from Houston but have family in San Antonio. I was told a Dr. Rincon is someone I should talk to. Do you mind telling me how much Dr. Wright charges? I will be self pay and am looking for someone outside of Houston who may be under $15,000.

Hi Redi,

I had my surgery in Monterrey, Mexico by Dr. Roberto Rumbaut. He charges $10,000. He was a great doctor, but because of my work schedule, I have not been able to go back to him for my fills. Thanks to one of our fellow bandsters, I found Dr. Fred Maese in Dallas, TX. He is now charging $10,000 for the lapband surgery and he charges $200 for fills that he does with flouro. Hope this helps.

Best wishes,

Angela

I wanted Dr. Wright and Carcamo to do my Lap Band but my loan fell through and my insurance only pays 50 percent after you jump through all the hoops. I cancelled my first appointment tomorrow at the diagnostic center to get the process rolling. I'm so disappointed. I'm not up the roller coaster ride with the insurance at this time. Best wishes in your journey I loved the center that Dr. Wright uses. Bobbie in Ingram / Kerrville area.

Anyone from SA???

Life is Awesome, Dr Wright is the best

I live in a neighboring town near Randolph Air Force Base.

Hi. I was banded by Dr. Carcamo on the 23rd of this month. I have my one week follow up on Tuesday. I will ask then as well, but do you know when the support group meetings are?
