Self Payers?

LovingWhatIs · January 5, 2008

oh, posted before I saw your post. 5 hours is better than an airplane. I had a 38 BMI and they did mine. Co-morbidity was Cholesterol (like who doesn' have either high chol. or BP - usually one of those is all it takes.. I am sorta surprised, you being self pay)

I think they only do the surgery in Cincy, though. Fills in Columbus.

I have until Monday to make up my mind, that's when I told everyone I'd call back. :confused:

Dr. Curry is currently charging $12,500 including 2 years of adjustments. His experience is probably worth the drive!

I was banded by him a year ago and have done great so far, down 62 lbs and already to my goal. Almost his whole staff is banded, which is awesome.

Where is Dr. Curry located? I am thinking of going to Michigan as self pay this year. Total price is $11,700 without adjustments. Thanks!

Dr Curry is in cincinnati. You can look him up on here even. Here he is known as DrC. He is a very pleasant person to talk to. Great surgeon as well.

I live in Akron, Ohio and I am wondering if it would be better to have the surgery in Michigan and have my fills done locally, The surgery is $11,700 and 5 fills are $350 in Akron. Having the fills done locally would save me a lot of time on the road. I currently weigh at 287 and want to get down to about 160. On average, how many fills has everyone had to have to achieve lets say, 50, 75, or 100 lb weight loss. I am a Registered Nurse and realize there are variables in every case. Thanks for the input!

I went with Dr. Curry (and I'm right near you in Medina!). It's about a 3 hour drive to his office. The $12,500 includes fills for 2 years. Also, he does the first fill under floro, so you get a more aggressive one.

I'm excited! 11 days to go!
