I am self pay and I have been quoted 12,900 here in Houston. This includes

Surgery Center

Surgeon's Fee

Anesthesiologist's Fee

10 Visits of Fills, Adjustments, and Follow-ups for two years

Is this a good deal?

Should I be looking for more?

And how can I check out a centers track record? The AMA? BBB?

I paid 13,500 for mine in Houston May 8, 2008. I have free fills for life, 1 yr. free nutritionist appts/doctor appts. That was a special.

Where was it?

I read somewhere else that someone in Conroe got about the same deal as yours and it included a personal trainer for a year

It was thru JourneyLite, Dr. Collier who's located in the Woodlands/Conroe area. You do not get a personal trainer but the nutritionist is a personal trainer. I guess you could pay her to train you if you wanted.

I also asked my pcp if he knew Dr. Collier & if so would he reccommend & he said yes. I really trust my pcp.

Thanks, I will check them out.
