mgewton Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Hi Debbie I'm going to Mexico next month and having surgery with Dr. Ortiz and it will cost me $9500.00 I have to pay for airfair myself. The price is worth it to me after looking at all the other Dr.'s both my husband and me feel very comfortable with Dr. Ortiz. Melissa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clg8579 Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Hi Debbie, Dr. Ortiz charges $9500 which covers the surgery, pre work, hotel stay for surgery and all fills. I believe there is a $100 charge for the fluro for fills and of course transportation and hotel costs for fill appts if you choose to stay overnight. Hope that helps. Good luck Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karenb Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Hi Debbie. Don't know any drs in costa rica...do they use the inamed band? I think Dr. Ortiz is the best & I wouldn't quibble about $1,500 if I knew I were getting the best. Don't know anyone who went to Cancun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
