I don't know what Brandi you spoke with but before insurance my total was $5,700. I paid out of pocket $1,100 and my insurance paid the rest. I have the write-up in front of me that states "Cost of Procedure $5,700. Why would I make something like that up.

yes they are real doctors. i know quite a few people that have had the surgery and lost all their weight with these doctors. they are very well known. they care about their patients and are not in it for the money. they have their private practice and they also do the lap band surgeries. why don't you look them up on the internet. I am sure you can find info on them. i was just trying to give you some information that I thought might help you. I would not go to Mexico for my surgery. if you read my e-mail i live in Hattiesburg MS and I went to Houma LA to have my surgery done. they did an excellent job and I am on my way to losing my weight. I have had two adjustments so far and I will be getting my third next week.

The physicians that did my surgery are three brothers named David, Eric, and Fritz Rau and there is another doctor with them named Donald Schwab. They are part of Physicians Medical Center in Houma, Louisiana. The phone# is 985-853-1390. but the first person I spoke with was Brandi. She does all the insurance work or if you self-pay and her # is 985-868-2206. she can answer any questions you may have. I had my surgery on 9/4/09 and I just went for my first adjustment. Oh, the adjustments are free for one year and you can get adjustments every two weeks. the total self-pay is $5,700. I hope this helps you.

Amlus, Where do you live? I am from Hattiesburg MS and there are no surgeons here that do this type of surgery, so I had to go to Houma, Louisiana. The total cost of my surgery 9/4/09 is $5,700. I was able to go through my insurance but if I could not get covered I would have self-paid. I hear it costs alot more in other cities and states. I don't know where you are from but I wanted to tell you not to give up and if you are near or in Louisiana the cost is not outrageous. Praying for you!! Phoebe
