Tammy , In the US The price ranges from around $8,000 on up I believe , In Mexico there are docs as low as $7,500 i believe ?

I had my surgery done in San Antonio TX it was $12,000 includes 1 yr of fills and after care. The best thing to do is do your home work . SEe if there is anyone in your area that is good ?

This is not the type of surgery you can price shop and go to the cheapest.

Best advice I Can give ya , Lap Band Talk is a great place for that .

I paid $17K to a doctor in California. OUCH. I sure hope this works.

Definitely shop around. I went to Mexico 3 1/2 years ago to save some money, and also because I liked the reputation of my surgeon. Prices nowadays are much more competitive, so you might find something just as cheap but local. But I would highly recommend going to someone who has at least a few hundred band surgeries under their belt, you know?
