I'm self pay and researching costs of sleeve in the U.S



Recommended Posts

I'm traveling to Edmond, OK. It will be 10k for self pay cash ( or credit card). If you finance thru care credit, I believe it's an extra 1k. I live near Chicago so I'll be staying a week in a hotel room out there as well and that is 400. airline Tickets I used reward points so it was only 10 for my mom and I :)

That's one of the lowest I have seen. Kansas City is around $11k and there's a couple of doctors in Texas around $9k - I would dearly love to stay local but even with Kansas City being quite low compared to everywhere else - it is still 3 times the cost of Mexico and that's where I'm having issues. If it were 2 or maybe 3k more I would stay local.

Washington is ridiculous. That's why I'm going to Denver. I saved 7000.00 by doing that when I had my band done. I will be going to Dr. Weaver for my revision if things work out. He charges a fraction of what you've listed here.

I just looked up Dr Weaver and sent them an email to find out the cost of surgery for me there. Thanks for the information and good to luck to you on your journey.

You can check out my blog if you feel so inclined. I've compiled prices for some of the more affordable docs in the US. I personally used Dr. Borland ($9800) in Louisiana and couldn't be more pleased with the experience. My blog is selfpaysleeve.blogspot.com if you wanna check it out.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
