deemarie 0 Posted May 16, 2009 I looking for affordable Lap Band surgery. Not sure yet if my insurance will approve. If I have to self pay I would like to know what to expect for cost? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RestlessMonkey 7 Posted May 17, 2009 It varies widely. I've read everything from around 10K by a surgeon in Denver to 25K+ in some areas. You can go outside the country and pay less (I never would) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
charms 1 Posted May 17, 2009 I went to Dr Terry Simpson in Phoenix, Although my band was covered by Tricare - his self pay, I thought was quite reasonable! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lndshark 0 Posted May 17, 2009 HELL with saving money, check out all your options and pick the doc you like. In the long run saving 3-4K isn't a big deal. I could have save 3K and had my band done in my hometown, but I chose to drive to Seattle to have it done, four hours, because I didn't like the guy here, and loved the people over there.
