Hi ,
My, my name is Megan and I'm interested in getting some type of bariatric surgery I'm not that much overweight but diet and exercise just aren't working I keep gaining the weight back I was wondering if anybody found a surgeon that is covered by MassHealth that pays for lap band or any type of bariatric surgery you seem to be knowledgeable? You can even respond about The BMC I may be able to switch my health insurance please let me know thank you
Congratulations! I just had a conversion from sleeve to Roux en y on 7/7/2020 because of gerd.
I was at BWH - nurses and everyone was great.

Hi Just want you to know there is a support group located at South Shore Hospital in Weymouth. It is open to anyone who has had or is interested in having any bariatric surgery. It is open to everyone no matter where you had surgery, your level of success, type of bariatric surgery you lenth of post op. Second Monday of each month in Classroom 2, 6:30-8 pm.
I figured there should be at least one new post per year on the MA board.

You will find a huge range of prices for self pay. I see numbers of 15 to 20 thousand for hospitals around the US, if you negotiate ahead of time. A lot of folks that are self pay go to Mexico, where there is excellent quality of care, and the price is more in the $6,000 range.
The only way to tell at a particular hospital and doctor is to get prices directly from them.

Hi:
I am wondering if anyone knows the total cost, assume I am paying all out of pocket, for the Sleeve procedure at Southcoast Health?
A ballpark would work? I am just now researching my options.
I'd still talk to them. You won't be the first (or the last) in this situation.

Wow -- thanks for letting me know! I think I'm kind of afraid to see Dr. Partridge again. I had my surgery in 2010 and did so well for a few years then the weight started creeping up and I didn't see her. I still have restriction but I'm the first to admit I still love to cook and eat. :(
