Has anyone else been told about the 4,500 program fee

Maybe this surgery is just not for me.(temporary moment of insanity - pls disregard previous statement) I just updated my profile stating that I was now going to just stick with Dr. Macik and wouldn't you know it. When I called the office they told me as of Jan 1, 2003 there will be a program fee of $4,500 due before surgery. You actully have to pay part of that before you are even approved. The fact that I am a not a new patient for them since I worked with them last year to get approval means absolutely nothing. What do I do know? Becuase I really dont have several thousands of dollars laying around. Vesta
