Where to go?

[km30381 2]

It looks like I am going to have to self pay for my gastric sleeve. I live in the San Diego area and have been quoted a price of $22,000 from my doctor. I don't mind traveling a little bit. Possibly Arizona. Anyway was hoping I could get some ideas of prices from other areas for good reputable doctors. Really appreciate any help and advice you can give. Thank you

Holy 22000 that's a lot. I went to Mexico and got better care than I could have ever expected and all costs including airfare doctors nutritionist for 2 years all my meds and the best 24 hour care for be days while I stayed there. I probably spent 4500 total...

Lucky you! You have one of the capitals of bariatric surgery at your doorstep. I just droove from Scottsdale, AZ to San Diege for surgery in Tijuana. Could not have been any more delighted with the price, level of cre and the outcome. I used Dr. Elias Ortiz with A lighter Me. they will pick you up at the border, I parked at Border Station next to the big outlet mall. First night in the Grand Hotel (you can google it) and stayed on the "medical" floor. Next day we were taken to the hospital for tests and surgery. Amazing team and nurses who all spoke great English. Release on the third morning and returned to the Grand Hotel where room service included broth, apple juice and popsicles (included). All meds and bandages were also included. Their drivers took us shopping and sightseeing. Amazing trip! Will definately go back for my plastic surgery when I get to goal!

I forgot to mention, the total for my surgery and everything complete $4600.00

Shustar that us like us. Bariatric pal is who I booked through and Dr. Francisco Zavalza. .he offers all the after care. Just had my first Skype 1 week post op appointment .....David Lopez set it all up and I was picked up at San Diego airport taken to our recovery condo...walking shopping. .to and from the hospital it was awesome...it's like an all inclusive best service I could ever have imagined Florence Hospital too all the nurses spoke English. ..

anyhow good luck finding your hospital
