The cost for the surgery, dr. fees, 7 day hospital
stay, the device, PT and meals were 10,602 GBP or about
21,000 dollars. That included everything I did. Needed to
stay another week and choose to stay at a hotel close to
the Mr. Treacy's office, a Marriot which was 290 a night
(x7) I
flew business/first class from Denver to Birmingham
which was a scant $7000 roundtrip with less that 30 days
notice. The total was about $34,000 overall but
considering my first orthroscopic surgery was just under
100,000 I feel pretty good about this one
