Cheaper US Lapbanding for self pay!



Recommended Posts

;) Hi all!

I was wondering if we could start a thread for self pays looking for a us surgeon to be banded. I am open to Mexico and am leaning toward Dr. Gonzales for sure but am open to us doctors. So if you know what the cost is could we maybe put the city in title and the docs info inside. You know surgury cost, fills, basic info.:help:

I am hoping this will make it easier to wade thru the postings to find the costs.:faint:i am hoping to be banded right after the 1st of the year! Hurrah!

I SAW KEITH MCEWEN MD. INDIANA. I TRAVEL SO FOR ME INDIANA WAS AS GOOD AS ANYWHERE. IT WAS $14500 WITH A FEW ADJUSTMENTS. NOT IN A HOSPITAL A SURGERY SUITE....IT WAS LIKE A HOTEL. NICE NURSES. THE PRICE OF ADJUSTMENTS ARE REASONABLE. BUT HE IS USING NEWER BANDS....MAYBE LESS ADJUSTING. I HAD MY FIRST FILL. STARTED AT 340 READY TO BREAK 300. IT HAS BEEN GREAT SO FAR.

Dr. Gerald Kirshenbaum in Aurora Colorado is the cheapest and best surgeon in the nation. His price is $9,950.00 it is his all inclusive price. He has a great reputation. Visit him at Lap Band Surgery in Denver Colorado | Lap Band Surgeon in Denver | Gastric Band Surgery Denver | Bariatric Surgery . His Bariatric Coordinator is also a Lap-Band patient.

If you mention wanting to know the next seminar time at Dr. Kirshenbaum's office when you call for the appointment, they will give you a $75 discount and your consultation is free. They are no longer doing the seminars.

Does anyone know of an affordable dr in Maryland for self pay? It seems the going rate is $15,000-$17k. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanx

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
