I also used Dr. Kirshenbaum in Denver.

$9950 everything included. I stayed in a hotel that was close to the hospital the night of the surgery. He has many out of town and out of state patients. Did you check out his website? He also does not require all the extra stuff some docs do. I went for my first consult and then had surgery a couple weeks later. He will do a consult over the phone and so will the nut.

BQT, if you do opt for an out of town doc, be sure that you have a local doctor who will take care of your band fills and other band related issues. Your follow up care is very important for success with a band.

I paid $13,500 for my surgery and one year of office appointments, fills, etc.

Hi

I live in AZ and my price was 15,000.00 that included a year of follow up and fills. Having had surgeries in Ca and AZ. CA will be more expensive. Good luck

Hi,

I am in the LA area too I went to Dr Korman in Marina Del Rey, check them out Bariatric Surgery | Los Angeles | Orange County

I am not sure what cash pay is because my insurance covered it. But I will say they are great and from what I understand the cost covers everything including fills.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
