Lap Band ?

Hey Guys, Does anyone out there know how much lap-band costs? Just wondering... Also would like to hear from people who had lap-band. Thanks.

I was banded on 12/29/05 and luckily my insurance covered it. I have seen cash prices though anywhere from 11K up to 21K. Depends on the surgeon, hospital, follow-up care etc. I love my band!! I have had 2 fills. First one really didn't do much; second one is awesome. I have lost 30 pounds and dropped 2 pant sizes. Feel free to email anytime with questions.
