Does anyone know where I could get financing for WLS ?

I am in deseperate need of the Gastric Bypass surgery.  I do not have any insurance and day by day I am dying a slow and undiserving death.  Please help anyone.  Thanks in advance for any & all responses.

Hi,
I just wanted to let you know that I too was a self pay, looking into getting WLS. I really found a GREAT DOCTOR in ALABAMA, his fees were alot less than here in GEORGIA. He also offered away to get financing, His name is Dr. Bryan Freeman. You can check the ALABAMA Board for more information.

Thanks so much Jeannie.       I will look into Dr. Freeman.   

I am going to georgia Coast Surgical in Brunswick> They will absolutely help you find financing.  They have a company that does medical loans and I was told that Capitol One will make medical loans too. 

Good luck.  Karen

Thanks, Karen.    I will  look  for Coast Surgical  ASAP.

I'm not sure how current this info is, but I hope it helps.

Hello there! Well I am not a self pay person, but I am going to get my surgery through OBESITY SOLUTIONS in Gainesville, GA. When I went to the information meeting they gave out packets and on one of the pages there are options for people who may not have insurance and they have alternative options to pay for surgery. Here is what it said-

We have listed a few of the options below.

Capital One and CARE CREDIT- Obesity Solutions participates with both of these healthcare finance companies, they offer flexible, low interest payment plan options.

CAPITAL ONE- call 1-877-559-5050 or go online to www.capitalonehealthcare.com

CARE CREDIT- Call 1-866-893-7864 or go online to www.carecredit.com

Hope this can help you in some way or another.
