I have a sleeve and LOVE my sleeve.
My friend has crappy insurance and is self pay. Dr Aceves did my sleeve and I am very happy. My friend says she can not afford 8750.00. Can someone suggest a competent surgeon that does it for less?

I really don't know much about him, but I believe Dr. Almanza is doing it now for 4999.00. I had lap-band with Dr. Jose Rodriguez and was very happy with him. I recently inquire about conversion to the sleeve, and they quoted me 6700.00.

Thank you

Dr. Ramos Kelly :) 

Wowsers, how yall get this so cheap...I was a self pay and I paid $14,400 for mine....Wish I coulda found a doctor for 8750 at the time i got mine

It's less expensive in Mexico.

I am going to Can****o have my sleeve....cost $7900. The same doctor, Dr Verboonen does the sleeve in Tijuana for $5700.

 Dr Jaime Ramos-Kelly is currently doing the sleeve for $5300  - send me a private message if you need details I can provide you with his coordinator cell number.  He has been great to work with - I spoke with him personally.  My surgery is scheduled for Jan 6th.

I choose Dr. Kelly in Mexico!!! Awesome $$$$$ and he will talk to your personally.  I have my surgery scheduled for November 22 and can't wait.  His personal assistant is Trish and she has been wonderful!

People...please be careful.

Your life is worth more than a few grand, isn't it?

I mean, that's why your getting the surgery in the first place, isn't it???
To extend your life in a healthy manner?

Please do your research and find, above all else, a competent surgeon who has facilities to deal with true emergencies should one occur. If you pay $10K vs. $6K it may be well worth it in the long run. Please, just do your research and be careful.
