Hello all! I am 21 years old and planning on have the RNY. I am self-pay and my first consult is Thursday, March 5th. I am hoping to get a surgery date soon. I was quoted a ballpark figure of 20k for everything.
I am super excited about getting everything going.

You simply cannot be beaten if, at the end of the day, some tiny part of you can still whisper: "I will try again tomorrow"
Congrats. I am still pre-op, but just wanted to say $20k sounds about right from what I have been quoted.
My insurance is covering $7500, the other $12500 is on me, so total is right about what you were quoted.
I have only been on here a short time, but I have learned alot and the people on here are very supportive and knowledgable.
I wish you all the best, and good luck!

Im from new jersey having my surgery in new jersey, was orignally having it with Dr. Joya in mexico and i would have paid 13k with him.
I am financing half of the 20k and depleting my savings but I feel it is definitely worth it.
The 20k also includes a year of follow-up visits and support which I figure is a big bonus, I dont want to have to pay for every follow up visit and would rather have the surgeon do the follow up then my PCP who is ummmmm how do I put this nicely? (an idiot).
