Drs/Prices in Nashville area for Lapband

I am already anticipating that my insurance won't cover lapband for me. I've seen the prices in Mexico, and one low-cost surgeon in Colorado. Are there any low cost packages in the Nashville area?

Hmm... not that I know of. I think most of the costs of the various programs range around 17,000-20,000. I know after everything was said and done with my gastric bypass my bill was something like 40,000 and thats including hospital stay, surgeon charges, anesthesiologist charges, etc. There is a forum for those opting for surgery in Mexico.. I think its called South of the Border. You might want to check it out. April

Some of the Nashville doctors will give a discount for self-pays. Call around and ask.

Hi Vicky, I picked this card up while I was at my gastric surgeons office this morning. For Lap-Band system, financing available 1-877-LAP-BAND, option 4 for more information. Best wishes, Merry Christmas, Kathy

I was self-pay and mine cost $14500. Complete Dr hosp and all. Well worth it. My Dr. is Dr. Houston.
