We reviewed all the Bariatric Surgeons serving the greater Long Island area, and picked the top picks based on experience, education, and empathy.
As of 2018, 7.65 million people reside in the densely populated and expansive Long Island region. On Long Island, 54 percent of adults are overweight or obese. Obesity is a cause of concern as it leads to other health issues like heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and stroke.
The cost of bariatric surgery in the region largely depends on the type of procedure and how long you’re required to stay under supervision. It may range between $17,000 to $30,000 in Charlotte. The cost can be significantly reduced when covered with insurance. Yet, only when certain specific conditions are met, insurance covers the procedure.
Considering the high cost of healthcare in the States, health insurance is absolutely necessary. The number of uninsured individuals in Long Island grew by 3.67% in 2016-2017.
