The general surgeon only does procedure at hospital and I have a lipoma midline region of scalp in the back. I have my first appointment with him but I would like to know the price range of the procedure done at hospital. I have insurance but I need to meet my deductible and I have to decide if to wait or just get it over with. Thanks
