Anyone in GA have Vsg

Hey Rita,

I'm sure the Psych eval will be enough. You can go to any Psych as long as they are familar with WLS patients. The nutritionist class...maybe. Call the office and explain your situation to them, they have a whole team there to help. The person you would probably need to speak to is Dee, she is the Bariatric Program co-ordinator. If you dont want the band, do settle for it. They are 2 completely different procedures. Call the office, they will help you out, they really have it together over there.

Dr. Blaney charges $21,000 for the VSG. He is closer than ATL, too.  Good luck, hon!

I had VSG in Mexico on this past Weds, August 13th, the process was a breeze and by far the best $9500 I have ever spent! Drs here in ATL were far to expensive so with prayer off to Mexico I went! I got home yesterday and so far so good, I am drinking my fluids and clear liquids with clear protein supplements

My surgeon does VSG also.  I don't believe it's something he or his partner do every week, but they do offer it as a choice in their practice (and in my case, for medical reasons, it's the only choice).  Dr. Johnson is located in Johns Creek, GA (north of downtown Atlanta) at Emory Johns Creek.  The cash price is the same as for RNY and I think it's about $23K.

I had the DS, and that was Dr. Maynard (who is AMAZING) and it was done at Dekalk Medical last year.  One of my good friends is going through Dr. Smith and has nothing to say but good things about him as well.
