Can You help me find a good Dr. with a reasonable cost. If you were a self pay where did you have the surgery and what was the cost? I will be a 100% self pay. BCBS dropped Me! To long to expain! I have found a wonderful Dr. in Mexico. But My family would rather Me to have surgery here in Chicago. Any self pay information would be great!! Thank You so very much for your time. I wish you all a most peaceful and blessed day. CHER

I had lapband surgery done with Dr. Horgan out of Chicago and was a self-pay. His office helped find financing too. IT was worth every penny ($15K). He does both RNY and band, but the banding was outpatient. Good luck!

Cher, You don't mention what type of surgery you are looking for, however, The Wish Center in Downers Grove has a self-pay program as well as financing for the RNY procedure. Good luck!! ~Jenn

Check out the Wish Center...I called there a few months ago and asked if I could fly to a different state to have the surgery...she said many people do that....if I remember correctly she said Utah was the cheapest at $18,000. You would have to stay there for 2 weeks before the surgery for testing...Illinois is one of the more expensive states...call the Wish Center and find out...
