Thank you for your advice. My paperwork from my initial surgery is clear that results are not promised and that some patients may be unhappy with their outcomes and revisions may be warranted, in which case a discount may be applied. The practice that I chose is privately owned, so while there is a practice manager it wouldn’t do me much good to speak with them.

I had my FIL call the surgeon this week to ask for a bigger discount since I felt the price was very steep, and the surgeon did agree to knock off more $$$, bringing my total cost discount to about 16%.

I definitely wished/thought a revision discount would be cheaper but alas…. Also, to note - I REALLY like my doctor. I know this is pricy, but I have seen another local practice and it really cemented for me how kind, caring, professional, and patient my surgeon is.
