Dr. Alavrez patients...

[Healthiernewme 81]

I had my surgery with Dr. A on May 9th. I went with someone, but would have been perfectly fine by myself. They take really good care of you there. I've had no issues and am super happy with my choice. I'm getting some follow up blood work done on Monday, but already my blood pressure is within normal range. I would highly recommend Dr. A; he is a very skilled surgeon.

Should I bring my lap top to the Hospital? I'm going alone and I don't want to get bored. Do they have wireless internet? I can't remember the name of the hospital Dr. Alvarez uses... but if you've been there please let me know. Thanks

I brought my laptop and there is internet but he does have a computer you can use. I don't remember the name of hospital

I paid $8700.... Had to send $1000.00 deposit upfront which was applied to the cost of surgery. Day of surgery I brought a certified money order for $7700

That's what I was quoted as well. I sent the deposit last Tuesday, so I expect to hear from Susan tomorrow, and get the rest of my pre-op information. My only regret is not doing this sooner.

I paid the same amount

Hi, Susie.

Thinking of taking my daughter to Dr.A sometime this fall. She wants to drive, does not like to fly. I will ask if it is less $ to meet them in Eagle Pass. Text me sometime! I hope that you are all healed from the car accident now!

My appt is July 13th with Dr. Alvarez, we are driving 15+ hours to Eagle Pass, my total is $8700, paid the $1000 deposit so upon arrival I will owe $7700.00 as far as I know there is no discount for driving to Eagle Pass because i am paying the regular price. They have two pickup places one in San Antonio and one in Eagle Pass.

Hope this helps! Good Luck!

Everyone I've talked to said $8700.00 is what they paid. Susan said their prices haven't changed since last time I contacted them which was in 2010. The only other charge I have heard of is $500 for people with a BMI over 50. I haven't heard of any discounts or anything, but I'm perfectly happy with the low cost!!! It's over $20,000.00 here in my area of the us!!
