ARE THERE ANY GASTRIC SLEEVE SURGERY CENTER'S IN LOUISIANA/TEXAS/MISSISSIPPI?

If so what is their name and website so I could check them out. And what is the cost if you are paying through self pay? I have no insurance. Do they have payment plan's? Even in Texas and Mississippi

?

I can recommend Dr Borland in New Iberia. He does self pay patients. He only accepts low risk patients and does the surgery as out patient.

In Lafayette LA Lafayette General has a bariatric team. I'm going with Dr. Eschete. You go to a seminar they have twice a month and go from there. They have weekly support groups for pre and post op patients.

I am using Dr Scott Stowers at My Bariatric Solutions in Decatu Tx. They have a great website and they will do phone consults for out of town patients.

There is also Surgerical Specialist of Louisiana. Offices in Convington, Slidell, and Metairie. I am using Dr. James Redmann. Website is www.whyweight.com.

Dr Drake Bellinger is phenomenal. He is out of Baton Rouge he has done four of my family members as well as my surgery with no complications. He has surgery centers in Baton Rouge, Hammond and Gonzalez. I had my surgery at st. Elizabeth Hospital in Gonzales. I've never been treated so well in a hospital. I would highly recommend them and their staff as well as Dr Bellinger.

I highly recommend Dr. King in Oxford, MS (http://www.oxfordbariatric.com/). He does offer financing, although I do not know any details since I was covered under my insurance.

My mom used Surgical Specialists of Louisiana and Dr. Warden did her surgery. I had my sleeve done on 3/31/2015 with Dr. Lavin. A co-worker also used Dr. Lavin. I highly recommend Surgical Specialists of Louisiana. They have offices in Gulfport, MS, Slidell, LA, Covington, LA, New Orleans, LA, Lafayette, LA. Not sure if they have any additional offices.
