I am just south of Tulsa and I was self-pay. Dr Fisher at Surgical Associates and Southcrest hospital both give a discount for self-payers. It's still not cheap, but it is certainly worth it! Also some insurances will cover you from day one, other consider obesity a pre-existing condition and you will have a waiting period. Just check with your company. Good luck. Also one thing to think about if going to Mexico is where are you going to get your fills and do your follow-up after you get back? Most doctors around here wont do them if you had surgery done elsewhere.
