Dr. Helmuth Billy - They wanted me to put up 3,500 up front

HI there,

I really wanted Dr. Billy to do my lap band. I have great insurance but they still wanted me to put up 3500.00 up front and then told I could get it back from my insurance co. after my op. I dont understand why you wanted me to put up money when my insurance would pay 100%. i went somewhere else had it done and was really happy and have lost 15 pds in 3 weeks. i am very disappointed with Dr Billys offince......

I had a very different experience with Dr Billy and his staff. I found that his office staff always goes the extra mile to do the right thing for the patient.

As a doctor, I can't say enough about Dr. Billy. He is an incredible surgeon, but he is also completely committed too the success of his patients. This doctor loves what he does and is great at it. He is both passionate and compassionate. He is also on top of the latest research and trends and incorporates those into his practice. Dr. Billy has built a practice that focuses on after-care. He understands what it takes to help his patients be successful. The office staff is great too!
