Info on Dr. Husted in Nashville

Hi everyone, does anyone know how much Dr. Husted's fee is for self pay for the DS? Thanks Linda

Linda, can't help you out there, but the office can tell you. Best of luck on your journey. Always, Kathy

Thanks, I left a message with Ellen there in billing but no call back yet. Linda

Linda, I am having my surgery through Dr. Husted's partner Dr. Spaw. And when you go to your surgical consult you will meet with Ellen and she goes over everything very well. I am currently doing my 6 month supervised diet with their Clinical Nutritionist Tiana. You will not find a more supportive and knowledgable staff anywhere. I don't know how fast Ellen will respond to a phone call but I know when I have any questions she usually responds by the next day. I wish you best of luck with your journey. Larry

It is about 8 or 9 grand for an open DS and about 2 grand more for lap. That is what I was told back in September and Ellen didn't mention any changes when I scheduled my surgury this morning. -Maria

Does that 8-9 grand include the hospital bills too??

nope, Ellen told me Dr. Husted's fee is around 8000 if you still have your gallbladder and appendix. That is just for his fee. Linda
