I’m new here so forgive me if this has been asked and answered already. Looking at the cost nation wide and MX as well. Going to be talking to my husband for the third year in a row about surgery and need cost in different states. If you could tell me your cost, where you had your surgery and what type you had done. I’m really interested in the Oasis Hospital in MX.

I went through my insurance.

However, as recently as a few years ago, Dr. Borland in New Iberia, Louisiana was charging a $9,800 cash price for the gastric sleeve.

Dr. Maytorena of Long Term VSG in Mexico charges $2,999 all-inclusive.

My surgery was in Cabo, with Bariatric Mexico. Dr Gerardo Garcia. It was $6,450. But $800 of that was a fee to remove my lapband. When it comes to surgery, you don't want a deal. You get what you pay for

I had surgery with Dr. Illan in Mexico at Oasis of Hope Hospital. Excellent experience, and the cost was $4,600.00. This included 2 nights in the hospital, and 1 night in a hotel/casino. All inclusive as well.

I had mine done in coral springs Florida for $8899. Several practices in the area, Dr wizman and Dr Taggar (my choice) with Bariatrix, FL and Dr shillingford. All very close in price.

I'm in NC, self pay. Everything including insurance for complications was $13,000. But my BMI was too low for insurance, my comorbidities we're all very high. So for us we felt it money well spent.

I'm a week out Thursday.

If you are going to Mexico I highly recommend OCC. Slightly more than other Dr's there, but the quality of healthcare is second to none. It was a breeze for me. They took excellent care of us, transport, overnight stay, etc. The hotel was great. They just did a really good job. And considerably less than the states.

I was a self-pay in Northwest Alabama. Cost was $3000 Dr. Fee, $6000 Hospital (overnight stay, out at 10:00 a.m. next morning), and $800 for anesthesia. $9800. No frills, and no special care. Did not include special insurance and any complication would have been extra. I did well and no complaints, both surgery staff and after care was great. This does include well-checks and visits to surgeon for the first year. (1 wk, 1 mth phone check, 3, 6, and 12 month visit.) All bloodwork, or additional tests are separate and average about $300 but, we must do this to keep a check on vitamins and minerals. My main Dr. orders these and faxes a copy to my WLS to add in my records. I live 2 hrs away. My bloodwork and Dr. visits are covered by insurance but the vitamins etc needed are not. I did receive a bill for another lab for $277, apparently for either testing or disposal of the stomach portion removed. My surgery was the sleeve. I wouldn't risk going to Mexico.....too far away if complications occurred. An acquaintance went and has had several major complications in the 3 yrs since having it. No Dr. wants to deal with her issues so she hasn't had a good experience.(Not saying problems wouldn't have occurred anyway but, it has cost her bigtime and health is still a concern on a daily basis.) It cost more locally but your Drs and hospital are near if needed. It's a tradeoff for each individuall
