Where is a cheaper place for sleeve surgery besides Mexico

I saw a post a while back ago about price of sleeve surgery and someone posted about having theirs done in Texas and was a lot cheaper. Any info? My fiancé insurance does not cover and unfortunately out of pocket here is very expensive. I know I have heard a lot of stories about Mexico being the cheapest but he is scared of that option. So if anyone has had done out of pocket a lot cheaper can you give me info on who and where?

There are places that have a discounted price if you have a hernia and insurance. They bill the insurance for the hernia and charge you cash for the sleeve. But it's still about $5k. Dr Kim in Texas does this.

Not cheaper than mexico, but honestly having 85% of a vital organ removed is not really the time to bargain shop. A lot can go wrong, and a sleeve done improperly is completely useless.

I recommend Obesity Control Center in Tijuana. Dr Ariel Ortiz is seriously the BEST! His clinic is a International Center of Excellence (look it up). He's not the cheapest in TJ but seriously you dont want the cheapest for this or any kind of surgery. What you want is the best. Check out his YouTube and Facebook page. Do your research and DONT go with the cheapest. This surgery or any WLS is no joke.
