|  Dr. Jessee in Largo and Tampa
Dr. Tiffany Jessee charges $15,800 as an all inclusive price. It includes the pre-op work-up, surgery and after care for a year. She also takes insurance. She does the procedure as an outpatient in Tampa and has office in Tampa now too. She also does the procedure in the hospital. She is the most caring doc you will ever meet. Plus she is an awesome surgeon. She is no longer with JourneyLite, so you can call 1-866-440-HOPE.  |

I don't know much about the doctor or the pricing but I will be attending the information lecture next Tuesday at Jupiter Medical Center with Dr. Jefferson Vaughan.

| Dr. Larson @ JFK
I had my surgery done at JFK Medical Center in Palm Beach County, FL, by Dr. Andrew Larson. My insurance paid 80%, and I know they have financing for self pays. So far, I am happy with the doctor and the staff. Had surgery July 9th, and my first fill August 18th.

I have never waited more than 15 minutes at Dr. Larson's office. I love Kendra, who I believe is the Nurse Manager, and Patricia, Dr. Simon's nurse (Simon does the gastric bypass and assists Larson with the bands and Larson assists Simon, so you have 2 surgeons working on you.)
I guess we all just have different experiences. For me, the bottom line is this: There are only a handfull of doctors doing this in Palm Beach County, and I have heard mostly good things about all of them. For me, it was a matter of insurance, and I am much closer to JFK if I have a problem than I am to Jupiter.
