I had a lap-band placed in 2014 and failed and now I am seeking a revision to sleeve. Any recommendations for a self-pay dr in North Florida that does revisions?

I am in central Texas. My doctor does revisions. Wished you were closer

I am not sure if they do revisions. You can call and ask but i had my sleeve done at Baptist Bariatrics Center in downtown Jacksonville, FL. I was self way as well since my insurance would not cover anything and i paid roughly $18-20K after everything. give them a call and see. https://www.baptistjax.com/services/bariatric-surgery

I’m having my revision done by Dr Joey Jarrard at Tallahassee Memorial Hospital. His office does accept self pay. When I was getting ready to have my VSG, my insurance initially denied coverage so they quoted me a flat amount to have the surgery. Eventually my insurance did cover my surgery but it was good to know that they were willing to work with me if I needed to self pay. The staff in his office is really great and they communicate very well with their patients. The surgery scheduler keeps me informed of every step in preparation for my revision. If you want to talk to her, her name is Samantha and she’s very nice. I think she would be able to let you know about self pay options. Their office number is 850-877-6212. Best wishes and I hope you can get scheduled for surgery soon! ?
