Everyone on the FB pages asks for this and I know that everyone’s insurances are different so this is not the same for everyone but I wanted to list it out for myself and them.
$30.00 First office visit (consultation)
$30.00 First office weigh in
$30.00 Second office weigh in
$30.00 Third office weigh in
$30.00 Fourth office weigh in
$30.00 Fifth office weigh in
$30.00 Sixth office weigh in
$217.00 Blood test (Iron, Magnesium, Diabetes, Cholesterol & Tri, Folic, B12, D, Thyroid, etc.)
$10.00 Metformin (Diabetes pills for 6 months)
$4.00 Reflux meds for after surgery
$10.00 Anti nausea meds for after surgery
$56.00 Blood tests before surgery
$97.00 Blood tests and pathology the day of surgery
$411.00 Stomach reducing procedure and repair of hernia
$8.00 X-ray of stomach after surgery
$1099.00 Anesthsia and other unclear hospital bills
$24.00 Unclear hospital bill
$2146.00
So there is it. As far as I know, this is the final cost of my weight loss surgery. I also don’t know if my husband’s bills are the same, he had the same surgery but slightly different testing and I think more testing than me as well.

there's some people who pay under $500 and others who pat $10,000 - it just depends on insurance. So yea I def think it's an OK price for all the benefits I'm now receiving from it. It's added years to my life!
