I Second THAT!!! I am from Middle TN also. Dr. Eckles banded me on May 2nd. He is great and I just love his staff. They went to bat for me with the insurance company, followed-up and stayed on top of it until I got my approval. Just cant say enough good things about them.

Hi,

What is Dr. Westmorland and Echles Number? I live in Crossville and that would be closer than Nashville. How much do they charge. I would be self pay. Thank you

I do not know how much a self pay would be, but everything you need to know about the M-boro Bariatric Care is

Good Luck. Hope to meet you the last Thurday of the month at our support group.

I'm in Nashville and have my doctor's appointment with Dr. Olsen at Centennial this Thursday June 8. I am also a self pay because my insurance won't pay for it.

The cost above is exact and when you self pay, Dr. Olsen cut 15% off of his fee.

The cost of the sugery does not include his office consultation $230.00 and the cost of the psychologist they send you to before the surger. I think the psychologist is $290 or $390.

I am excited. From what I've read/heard of Dr. Olsen is that he cares for his patients yet he is a strict Dr and will tell you how things are even if you don't want to hear it. This is the type of Dr. I need.
