BLIS for self-pay Lap-band surgery patients...

...is about not worrying about complications. It is important to us that you heal well and that the band works as miraculously for you as it does for all of our Lap-band surgery patients. We have done a lot of surgeries for people that pay for it out-of-pocket. They did the math and realized that surgery costs less than a decade of obesity. That's right. They realize they are going to save money by permanently losing body weight that in the long run will shorten their life. They want to lose the weight for their family's financial well being and they want to be alive long enough to see their grandchildren.

 Lap-band surgery advantages do not relieve worry the about costs...

...no matter how good it is for your long-term health and finances. No matter how you look at it, any surgery costs a lot of money and you have to give up the money today, not 10 years in the future.  We do our best to give you more for your money than any other practice without any compromises in the quality of your treatment and support. While other practices limit support from 1 to 3 years, we give it to you free for the rest of your life. We also give you free fills for the first 2 years after surgery (a savings of at least $1000). No one does fills as inexpensively as we do. If you have been overweight for over five years, you must take steps to lose weight and save your life. Many of you realize that you can't control your weight on your own. So you make the decision in favor of your long term financial and physical well being.  You save up or take a second mortgage on your house and decide to take the plunge. But then you think, what if something goes wrong?

You don't want to lose your family's home or your children's college fund

If you are like many of our patents, the cost of elective surgery will stretch you to your financial limit. It's a big cost for the average family. You decide to have the surgery and put your hard earned money down or take on debt...and then it hits you.  This, although it is one of the safest surgical procedures, is still surgery. There are still risks involved, especially if your health has been compromised by being overweight (high blood pressure and/or cholesterol or diabetes). Then the worrying starts. What IF something goes wrong.

Worry is one of the worst things you can do for you health...

...especially if you are trying to heal. But we all do it. You can't help it. It's your life. It's your children's life and their long term future. Everything might be on the line. We have seen the worry many times in our patients and have done our best to counter it through support and cutting our costs as much as possible (without compromising service). Worry and healing are opposing forces. You can actually worry yourself sick. You really mustn't do that after having even the safest of surgeries. Worry can cause surgical complications and we have racked our brains trying to find a way to eliminate it. WE have worried about our patients worrying during their post surgical healing time. Finally, we have found a solution.

Only top surgeons with the best records of successful surgical outcomes are being given the opportunity at the time of this writing. Dr. Simpson is one of only 12 doctors that can offer this opportunity in the United States. Other practices will not be able to offer it to you. Only those that rarely have post-surgical complications. That's the only way it could work. Health coverage available at the time of surgery is an amazing thing to be able to give to people. It makes this one of the best times to get Lap-band surgery because living without fear of bad outcomes is one of the healthiest things we can do for you.
