Anyone pay out of pocket?



Recommended Posts

I, too, paid out of pocket. June of 07, yes 1 year now.

Mine was all inclusive at $7,000.

Interested in knowing who did the surgery and where he is. It sounds like you are very satisfied. Thanks for any input you might have.

My BMI was low as well, but I had high BP, backaches, high cholesterol and other problems, so easy to OK my surgery. Didn't even try to go through my insurance, too much red tape. Cost was $13,600 which includes all visits and fills for a year (Salt Lake City, UT). I've lost 48 lbs. in about a year, but only 9 more to go. Very slow for me but I've carried this weight around for 30 years now, and enough was enough!

I had a BMI of 33 and paid $15,000 totally out of pocket. The results have been a little slower than I had hoped, but hopefully it will be worth it. My main concern is keeping the weight off after I lose it. I was tired of starting over. I say take out a loan and do it.
