Frequently Asked Questions About Costs
How much does gastric sleeve cost in Mexicali?
There are 4 packages, from $3,300 USD (Basic) to $4,200 USD (All-Inclusive). All include surgery, preoperative studies, 24-hour hospitalization, and medical, nutritional, and psychological follow-up. Higher packages add medications, barium swallow test, Sugammadex, lodging, and transportation.
Why is gastric sleeve cheaper in Mexicali than in the United States?
In the United States the cost can exceed $20,000 USD due to operating costs, medical insurance, and hospital structure.
