Help with paying for my surgery



Recommended Posts

my husband's insurance does not cover the surgery. We have very bad credit. I am desperate for a solution to my weight loss. Is there anyone out there that can lead me toward an answer or solution to financing? ?

My surgeon had financing availible.

Have you tried with your surgeon?

It will be at high interest with your (er credit rating) probably but very much WORTH IT.

Good luck,

edie

Have you tried to find out why they don't cover it and did you get an explanation.

Like edie stated, they have all kinds of financing available. look on the internet and pick one.

Could you try cleaning up your credit a bit and then perhaps you could get a loan? The interest rates are going to be extremely high otherwise.

Some of the Mexican docs used to personally finance some of the surgeries but they were burned so many times I don't know of any that do it anymore. Besides, they do check credit.

There are financing co's that many docs work with. Call the doc of your choice, explain the situation, and see which finance company they suggest.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
