Recommended Posts

I am a private pay and looking at other options for RNY in US costing less than local hospital. It is between 32000.00 to 38000.00.

I would appreciate any help you all have to give.

Yes, my surgeon offers a self pay option for RNY that is between $19,000- $20,000. His name is Dr. Matthew Weiner in West Bloomfield, MI (Detroit Suburb)

Dr. Roller in NW Arkansas is about $16,000, but that doesn't include pre-op testing.

Dr. Weiss at Central Baptist in Lexington, KY is awesome. His self-pay is considerably less than that but I am not sure exactly what the hospital charge is.

Jen at Dr Weiner was awsome and they seem to have this long distance thing worked out with skyped office calls, even discounted hotel rates in place. Is his office far from hospital and airport? Dr Rollins in Arkansas is less money, they are checking to see how to combine everything into one flight out as they had not done so before.

It's not terribly far from the airport. I'd guess about a 30 min ride. Yes, Jen is great. I actually was in the office today for my one week post-op. Dr. Weiner has been nothing but a pleasure to work with.

Oh, and he probably about 15-20 min from the hospital. The hospital is very nice. Large private rooms, very Bariatric friendly - large beds, large chairs. And the nursing staff is awesome and attentive.

thebuelz,

I am using Roller Weight Loss Center in Arkansas also! I have only been to a seminar so far. So far I am very impressed with this center and their team. I will be self pay. Were/are you as well?

I am scheduled to have all my pre-op tests in April. They said that my insurance will cover pre-op just not the rest. Wondering how much out of pocket will be left though.

RR, I'm covered by my insurance, so no self-pay. That's awesome that they cover the pre-op stuff for you! Dr. Roller required a stress test, pulmonary testing, EKG, EGD, bloodwork, and a few other things. I wasn't required to do a sleep study. They did all that on my first appointment since their office is set up for everything. I did have to go to the hospital to get some sort of heart scan, but they got me in and out the same day as my appointment. I'm not sure about additional out of pockets, but you'll probably have visits with the NUT, so maybe some copays? I bought a bunch of Protein samples from them and they have a package of vitamins/protein for after surgery as an option too. I've got my pre-op and last appointment today and surgery on 4/5, so I've not seen final costs yet.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
