I went through Dr Shock in everette and love love love her, it cost about 20 grand with all the pre op testing and everything else, had to have sleep labs ect.... also came with 1 year monthly follow up !!
I am having my surgery thru Dr. Srikanth at the Center For Weight Loss Surgery in Federal Way. I am also self pay; the surgery is $15,960 including 1 night hospital stay and 3 months of post op. There are A LOT of pre-op testing requirements however, and the cost of just the testing thus far has been over an additional $5,000. However, Dr. Srikanth is awesome, his staff is amazing and I'm happy to possibly pay more than other places for a surgeon I am so confident in.
Best of luck!
Have your body fat tested. It could be you have less fat than you think.
TRICARE will not cover a cosmetic surgery. You must have ongoing medical issues that are documented.
