How much would YOU pay???
G8trgrl replied to AlwaysCruising's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
This solution is definitely not overnight. I’ve done 4 medically supervised weight loss plans. I’ve researched the gastric sleeve for over a year. I have other health issues that need to get better. For my health , I’ve decided that this is the best choice for me. I don’t get paid for extended time off. I already have the Summers off unpaid. So, this is the best time for me to do it since I’m already off. -

If you have insurance their prices start at $6799. I have insurance, it just doesn’t cover wls. By the way, I’m always cruising too. I’m bummed my cruise that was supposed to 20 days from now was cancelled. I still have my September one to look forward to. -

Anyone gone to Blossom Bariatric (self-pay) in Las Vegas?
G8trgrl replied to kmn1109's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
I’ll be having my surgery at Blossom on June 15th. That’s a Monday. So, I’ll be flying in the Thursday before. Friday I have several appointments. I’ll have the weekend to do whatever I want. My daughter will be with me. So, we’ll likely check out what’s open on the Strip since she’s never been before. I’ll have the surgery Monday another appt with an IV treatment on Tuesday and fly home Wednesday. So far, everyone at Blossom has been kind. I chose Blossom because of all the great reviews, the fact that I don’t have to jump through hoops with my insurance company, and I was able to schedule it when it was convenient for me. Remind me around June 18th and I’ll leave a review. -
We’ll likely miss each other since I’m flying out in the morning.

You’re a week after me. I’ll be flying home on the 17th. Surgery is the 15th.

Blossom or Angeles Hospital Tijuana
G8trgrl replied to Chrissy800's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I can let you know about Blossom in June. My surgery will be the 15th, but I arrive on the 11th. -
I’m doing the Fast Track program with Blossom. So, I didn’t need to do the 6 months before stuff
-
I’m flying United. There will be no one in the middle seats on my flight. I think they’re doing every other row as well. But, not sure.

Gastric sleeve with Blossom Bariatrics
G8trgrl replied to mobroke's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I loved everything I read about Blossom. And, I need to have it done in June. As a teacher that is the best time to get it done and recover before school begins again. -
Gastric sleeve with Blossom Bariatrics
G8trgrl replied to mobroke's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I’m having my surgery at Blossom in June. My insurance doesn’t cover any of it. The website says starting at 6799. But, that is only if your insurance is paying part of it. Mine is costing $15,500. -
Yours is 4 days before mine. Mine is June 15th.

How Fast is Fast Track
G8trgrl replied to FinallyLosingIt20's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The person who posted that Fast Track would take 3-4 months wasn’t talking about Blossom. Some hospitals may have a Fast Track program. If it wasn’t for Covid it’s possible I’d be done now. I’m scheduled at Blossom for June 15th. Praying Nevada opens up elective surgeries very soon! -
Mine is scheduled. Trump said yesterday elective surgeries would be in Phase I with possible start date May 1st. Although, mine isn’t elective. It’s for my health.

I’m so sorry. I hope it opens soon. I’ve seen others who are getting their surgery this month.
