Can anyone tell me how much an MVD with Dr. Casey might cost? He is not a preferred provider with my insurance so I might have to cover up to 50% of the cost. I would like to know how much it might cost in order to plan ahead. Also, can anyone tell me what the lead time and time involved in scheduling the MVD with Dr. Casey and having the surgery done? I am a teacher and have a small window in which to have it done without impacting my class work (one of the reasons I haven't pursued this earlier).

With Casey. Fall 2010
Mine was 50k
He and I personally emailed some pre op stuff back and forth
My local Neurologist sent his files
I was on the table within 6 weeks
Your mileage may vary,!
Hospital has a discounted apartment you can rent! We flew there, drove back.
Stayed 2 nights before MVD… i was in the hospital 2 nights,
Family all stayed 1 more night in the apartment before the treck home.
Stayed in bed and rested for about two weeks.
Now, no pain, no meds.
Call his office monday. : )

Where is Dr. Casey? I want to look him up and see if he's a pp for my insurance. I am having to consider a few things pretty quickly. Thanks~~
