VGS in Europe

Hello Everyone,

I will be getting a VGS on August 17th in Brussels, Belgium. Just came back from a consultation with my surgeon. If you have any questions about the procedure/costs over here don't hesitate to ask (it seems much cheaper than USA) . Alex

Cheaper there maybe but add in the flight and hotel - quite a lot more expensive I imagine! Although I would really love a trip to Belgium! lol How much is it in comparison? So far, I've found a surgeon in Montreal where I can get it for $13,500 CDN. (+ flights and hotel I imagine, unless they put patients up in a hotel)

Mine will be ~8000€ but from what I know you can get one from ~4500€. Prices vary a lot depending on type of room you choose etc. In general it's a three day stay in hospital, you're being admitted the day before surgery. :)
