Humming Bird 275 Posted September 29, 2009 (edited) 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.

kiz 1 Posted September 29, 2009 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tke100 0 Posted September 30, 2009 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
