Lap Band on 06/21/12

I had lap band surgery back in 2012. I am now looking to have band to sleeve revision surgery. I live in Utah and here the prices are fairly high (I think anyways). They range form $18,000 to $22,000. My parents are helping me to finance this adventure but they will not help me go to Mexico to get this done. So I am looking for a surgeon here in the states that does revisions for a reasonable price and will see out of town patients. I have no problem with travelling, in fact I welcome the small vacation. Please send me any recommendations you may have. Thanks so much!!!

Aftercare is critical post op, the sleeve is far more invasive than the band. I would strongly recommend you do instate. So incase of a serious complications you have the support you need.

I know you're probably uber confident that the sleeve is right for you. But it's so damn different than the band. Take your time in making this decision.
