I would like to make an appointment to discuss weightloss surgery. I met with my family physician today and he suggested that your surgical weight loss program may offer me a good result. I have dieted for over 40 years, yo-yoing up and down. I am currently 100# overweight. I no longer want to go the fruitless dieting route.

Hello.
I was wondering about options for payments? Do you have any plans set-up, or know of any financing companies that would cover the cost such as Medi-plan?
How long is the program and how is it set up? How long until you can have the surgery? Is the pre-op long?
Does the price cover any other expenses, such as medications?
What is the time frame on the return to work?
How much weight is lost weekly, monthly?
If a person has extended medical, would that cover any of the expenses decreasing the amount of the procedure?
Does the $17200 include taxes? Could there be extra, unexpected expenses incurred after the surgery that would not be covered by medical?
