Title: Did Dr. Garramone raise his prices recently?
Post by: AleksiJason on March 24, 2015, 01:13:33 PM
I had top surgery February 2014.

The Top Surgery fee was only 5,300 (not including hospital and anesthesia fee)

but I been looking on transbucket and the guys are listing like 7,500 for the surgery fee

I've asked some of them if they are including hospital and anesthesia fees but got no responses

seems really dramatic to raise your price by 2,000 dollars in a year

Yes, but it's not $2000 increase, more like $700 or so? Very recently seems to be at $6000. (Peri is listed as $6500 but I don't think he really does them very often.)

$7500 or so represents the real cost of surgery plus hospital and pathology fee.

He's started charging the pathology fee upfront. So you do pay that on your pre-op.
