Hi everyone, For anyone who has had the lap band done could you please tell me what the cost was. I've heard various prices for the lap gastric bypass and was just curious for the cost. My insurance covers at 70% and was trying to estimate my out of pocket.

Lisa, There are two doctors in Zephyrhills who do the lap band and they charge $16,500 and it includes everything. My mom just had it done on May 7th by one of the partners. And she has lost 50lbs. Karee

Lisa, Karee is right. I was going that way, but BS/BS would not pay! I am also in Zephyrhills and went to same doctor as Karee's mom. Marla PS. the doctor has had lap band, so he knows where we are coming from.

You can do it in Mexico for under 10,000. That is what I am going to do.

I had mine done in Mexico for $8500, with Dr. Kuri outta Tijuana, an excellent surgeon and my fills from him are free for life. I am very happy with my results as of now. Good luck in finding a doctor. Caryn
