5,000-7,000 Rhinoplasty in los angeles possible?

Dear ...............Having surgery with a surgeon just because of affordable pricing might get you in trouble and cause significant headaches and problems. Look through your resources and make a list of a few surgeons that you think are good choices based on training, knowledge and experience. Then find out their price range and have surgery if you can afford it at this time. Revisions and complications are much harder to manage.

You mentioned a range of $5,000-7,000. Now the one issue that you have to be very
clear on is whether or not that is an “all-inclusive” fee which would include
the surgeon’s care both before and after surgery, and the services and
anesthesia specialist, and the outpatient surgery center or hospital or
doctor’s office facility. It is very
important that all the costs be enumerated when you have your consultation. It is hard for me to comment on whether or
not you could have a rhinoplasty for that cost because, again, I am not sure
whether you are looking at the all-inclusive costs or just the $5,000-7,000 as
the surgeon’s fee.

The way to know is to have a consultation and make sure
you get a written quotation which covers all of these services. The practice will be glad to give it to you. Before you go, be sure to check out the
practice by visiting the practice’s website, read the reviews by patients, and
be sure to do as much homework as you can before you get to the consultation. At consultation, you do want to have computer
imaging so you can see the predicted result of the procedure and make sure you
are comfortable with the surgeon’s suggestions.
Experience and talent and a high degree of specialization are very
important of course. That is what you
are looking for. Be sure to bring a
friend or family member to the consultation because a lot of information will
be passed back and forth, and you don’t want to miss anything. Before you come to the consultation, be
prepared with a written list of questions for the doctor and the staff and, in
this case, you will have questions for the practice administrator who generally
manages the financial aspects of your care.
