Cash Pay Pricing
Unfortunately, about 5% of all health insurance plans do not cover the cost of weight loss surgery / bariatric surgery. Many patients would benefit from this surgery, but they do not meet the criteria of their health insurance company. Luckily, we can help on these occasions. We offer payment options in installments without interest. Our office is located in Tucson, Arizona and all procedures are performed in hospitals nationally certified as Centers of Excellence in Bariatric Surgery. These centers of excellence are specialized hospitals characterized by exceptional results and a low complication rate after surgery. This type of surgical procedure, being highly complex and specialized, is not performed in an outpatient surgery center.
