How much do you charge for an otoplasty? Houston, Texas Doctors

Question

My daughter got an otoplasty years ago & the doctor only stitched them back & didn't cut any cartilage so after a few months the stitches got undone, & her ears protruded once again. I'm looking for a doctor in Houston or surrounding areas to give me a quote on pinning back the ears for my 9 year old daughter. Hoping to find someone that has a $2000 budget or under. That's why I'm writing this post instead of contacting doctors one by one who I might not even qualify for with the budget I have.

I charge $3,500 for an otoplasty and the procedure is done in the office under local anesthesia instead of general anesthesia.  It can be done under general anesthesia but it would cost more.

Best Wishes,

Unfortunately $2000 would hardly cover operating room and anesthesia costs. When she is older it could be done under local anesthesia which would save money. Otoplasty is not done often enough for most plastic surgeons to really know how to do them well
