    Usually if there are no complications: follow up appts happens in the 6th, 9th,12th (maybe 18th) month then usually yearly. In my experience the doctor visits are nearly as expensive as the labs

  • I just had my 3 week post op and will go back at 3 months, 6 months and 1 year. My out of pocket has been met for the year, so the 6th months and 12 month appointments I’ll have to pay.

  • 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 6 months 1 year and annually after that. Ask if they offer a cash discount if you pay the same day. Good luck!

In my experience the doctor visits are nearly as expensive as the labs if you need to do it out of pocket. That's when you'll likely need/want to shop around for the best price

Good Luck ?
