I understand this surgeon is one of the rare one who does all 4 of the main WLS options.
I'd sign up if I fit the criteria. Dunno if there is any discount or is just for those who want to share their experience.

Pokes heads up... When Patty finds documentary for Plastics, getting in line, too!
Back, almost a million years ago, I got a quote from a plastic surgeon who has worked on patients over 400 pounds -- he actually was very sweet. Told me he was happy to do the work on me (panneculectomy) at my over 400 pound weight, but told me if I wanted to really get more bang for my buck, I should consider WLS, first.
I was told the main expense was the hospital. He would do my work for 5 - 7K, depending on how much work I was wanting, but after hospital costs, I was looking in the 15 - 20K region. My exhusband spent my slush fund for plastics, so I have to do it the "old fashion way," loose the weight then hope some of the plastics will be covered, later!
We all have seen the work done on television, so it has to be out there! Maybe I'll go "truffle hunting" when the time comes!
