Barix Clinic/ Groveport Ohio

[mcb1303 0]

Does anyone have any direct experience with the Barix Clinic in Groveport, Ohio? My insurance doesn't cover WLS and i am self paying for the Band.

From what I understand, Barix has only been doing the Band since this summer. So whether you're one of the few who has gotten the Band there or you had gastric bypass I would like to hear about your experience with the clinic.

Thanks

I hope to be a loser soon!!!

I just met with Dr. Schram at Barix in Ypsi. I was told he travels between both clinics. He said he has done about 80 bands and over a thousand By-Pass surgeries. He said he has never lost a patient on either surgery. He told me that self-pay would be $15,500 (I believe). Have you read the posts by Dr. Pleatman. I believe he charges $12,500 and that includes fills for 2 years. I am from OH and Ypsi is very close. Pleatman is in MI too but I do not know how exactly where. There are a lot of positive comments about him and he actually posts on this site. If I have to self-pay the $3000 would sure make a difference to me.

Good Luck
