Don't even go down the "Cheapest "Route!!! This is your body your talking about, not a second hand car!!! You want the best surgeon for you!! totally irrespective of price or location. I flew half way round the world to Dr Feller for my h/t, and don't regret a single mile/cent of it. Get in loads of consults, and if money is ever an issue, delay and save up!! All the best. Clive. |

I found great value in several of the top docs, including Cooley; who did 2500 for $9k (actually we got 2750), and he also took about 50 old plugs out. This cost also included two nights at a hotel. That's a cash / certified check price.
Dr. Charles was $8500 for the 2500 if paying full in advance with cash / certified check. However, a trip to him would have required a plane ride. And the others are only up to $1k more expensive or so. So, I agree with the others. My first transplant cost $3,000 in '91 and I tried to hide it for the past 15 years. If you are equal in your choices, then consider price, distance, etc.

Dont look for cost as a decision. Look at quality of surgeon. Then if you have a group like 5 you narrowed down, then consider cost as last option. Also, many surgeons, like Shapiro will give discounts if you take a last minute (cancelation) appointment. Or if you need a couple of sessions for your desired result, then if you book both sessions (like 9 months apart) at the same time-- a discount is given.
