All Inclusive (& Affordable) Self-Pay In Us

I just found this website and thought I would share it with you all..... $8k ALL INCLUSIVE for a gastric sleeve in the US isnt bad!

"The self pay option of $8,000* for Gastric Banding and Sleeve Gastrectomy in the Myrtle Beach area results in significant savings and can be advantageous to those looking for affordable weight loss surgery and not wishing to travel outside of the United States. *This price covers any complications that might arise within 90 days of either the gastric banding or sleeve gastrectomy surgery and one year of fills for the gastric band. Hospital, surgeon, anesthesia and radiology fees are all covered for the surgeries."

I have chose to go with Dr. Rodriguez in Juarez, MX for $6800 (and many more revision surgeries under his belt) but for those of you that dont like the idea of MX, this may be an option for you.

Just remember to always do extensive research on the doc and facility before you make a decision! Sometimes you get what you pay for!

Good Luck!!!

That is a great price point for those who are self pay and wish to stay in the USA> But there are so many wonderful doctors in MX who have preformed the VSG many more times than most docs in the USA. I go for those with the most experience and best out comes. My best advice is to do your research - whether in the USA or out - check references.

You are exactly right Kimmes. that is why i put the second link that shows the surgery count for the doc. I want everyone to make sure they know what they are going in for.

RESEARCH, RESEARCH, RESEARCH!

Just stumbled upon this post , i know its late but im having the surgery with doctor washington from coastal bariatrics on august 8th. His staff and him are amazing and i feel 100% comfy with it. I decided I (personally) wanted to stay in the US. Its a 12 day stay but it is all inclusive. The reason why it was 8k was because they needed the extra surgeries to get accredited for a center of excellence faster ( i hope i worded that right ) It's in another post that I copied and pasted from an email (from their nurse) They have been wonderful. The doctor moved down there from NJ and has a lot of experience, of course not as many as mexico but he doesnt do nearly as many daily surgeries as they do down there.....again, personal choice. If anyone is interested I hear their price is now 18,500
