How Much Do U Pay For An Adjustment?



Recommended Posts

Im almost 3 yrs post op and began having problems with my band about 4 mths ago. Seems like I see the dr often now. And each time its a 6 hr round trip and $160. My insurance only covered the first yr of fills. This is costing a fortune. And theres no end in sight.

Just criuos as to if my dr is charging a reasonable amount or not.

My doctor charged the insurance like $250 for the office visit and an additional 200+ for the fill. I have restriction so I have'nt been back since I lost my insurance that covers the fill.

I'm not self pay, but I asked on one of my visits how much my fills would be if I ever found myself without insurance, they told me fills would only be 40 bucks. I'm somewhat skeptical since it seems to be a LOT lower than anyone else charges, but that's what she told me.

I'm self pay and done with my free year. True Results Houston has several options...prepay 6 months for $240, monthly draft your bank $40 for a minimum of 6 months with no refund, or pay as needed $125. My insurance doesn't cover any of it.

No insurance coverage. $150.00 each visit or $500/year.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
