I did want to add, when I first received an estimate for surgery it was over $9,000. I was completely shocked at that price and told them I couldn't do it. They ended up lowering it to about $6500. Supposedly I was quoted the "nighttime surgery rate" originally (it was 3am or 4am when I brought her in), but they weren't able to do the surgery til the day time anyway so I was given the "day time" rate (not sure why I was ever given the night rate to begin with) with the new estimate. As you can see, my bill didn't even hit the new estimate. Just something to keep in mind I suppose and it never hurts to ask about different rates I guess!
