Also, has anyone else had issue getting cost for their surgery. It's been a nightmare. The hospital and doctor office are telling me different numbers each time I speak to them and I have to call someone else to find out the anesthesia cost. The whole process has been a mess.

Am I getting ripped off? Help.

So it has been 3 years since I first had a consultation! I'm finally moving forward with a septo/rhino. I was hoping to have most of the surgery covered by insurance since my nose deformity was caused by an injury. However I'm being told by the doctor office that I have to pay the faciality and anesthesia fee out of pocket which is $1800 along with a $7500 fee for the doctor. Then my insurance will cover the septo/turbinate fee. Is this normal? It seems odd to have to pay out of pocket for the hospital fees. $7500 also seems very high for the minimal amount of cosmetic changes that we discussed. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for all the comments. This process is very...

Thanks for all the comments. This process is very daunting. Once you find a doctor, how can you decide on how you want your nose to look. It's such a huge deal. I have 2 morphs from 2 doctors. I'm not sure about either of them. I definitely want a natural nose. I guess I will discuss more with the doctor of course, but all comments appreciated. I have added the morph from the first doctor.
