Did you ask on the VSG boards and/or revision boards?  Not sure were you live, Hurley just started.

You might check out Dr. Pleatman, just outside of Detroit. 

If you're insurance won't cover it, he's doing the VSG for $11,200, including everything.

I had mine with him and was very pleased. I would recommend him for any laparoscopic abdominal surgery. He's somewhat easygoing and easy to talk with. Even if my insurance covered a laparoscopic procedure I would certainly consider Dr P for it. Things may move pretty quickly if you're self pay. You won't have so many hoops to jump through.

Hope all goes well.
