Seeking Selfpay Prices for Indiana/Chicagoland



Recommended Posts

Of course I'm set with Dr. K in Colorado - but, I called all day Thurs & Fri - was unsuccesful in getting someone to accept me for local fills. fillcentersusa is not local for me.

So... today, I begin considering going local and paying more. So, I'm posting messages in different areas to asking for prices locally (Chicagoland/Indiana).

I do have 4 prices here so far.

Actually found a couple good prices - just need to know if they will accept my current financing option which is all set and ready.

RightWeigh Bariatric in Kentucky charges $12,500 - they also have a location in Indiana - I will call in the morning to see what they charge (hoping its so close to this).

Lifeway Bariatrics in Downers Grove & Merriville, IN charge $15,500.

Synchronyhealth: $16,000

Midwestbariatrics: $16,211

If any of the lower ones accept my financing and can band me sooner, I'm going to make the switch ASAP to free up that 10/30 date at Dr. K's office.

I had mine done in Detroit through Beliteweight.com and I paid 11,700. That was a 4 hour drive from my home in Indiana and I follow up with Dr. Clark in Greenwood (2 hour drive) for fills. I was really happy with everything I got and I am really happy with Dr Clark for my follow up fills. He does charge 300 a fill vs 150 a fill in Detroit but Detroit lets you come every 2 weeks and Dr Clark once a month. So it really is the same if you ask me. I had Dr Weiner in Detroit. Good luck!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
