Hello-
I've lost 80 lbs with another 40 to go til goal. I'm saving up for all the plastic surgery I'm going to want/need, which will include a lower body lift, breast lift, and arm lift. I live just north of Seattle. My insurance will pay for a panniculectomy only, so most of the costs will be out of pocket. I'm considering getting this done out of the country to save on costs, but don't love the idea of flying soon after surgery. I'm considering Vancouver, BC because it is only a 2 hour drive away. Has anyone priced PS in Canada? I imagine the cost might be similar, but there may be savings with our favorable exchange rate. I'd love to hear of anyone who has had their PS in Canada, specifically about cost. Also, if anyone has had PS in Vancouver I'd love recommendations for a surgeon. It's close enough, and I head up there frequently enough anyway for weekend get-aways that getting consultations done there won't be problematic. Thanks in advance for your input!
