Hello,
my family is thinking about brain surgery for my brother with ocd. What is the cost, if anyone is familiar?
I had the surgery done. It cost $30 Thousand Dollars, but at that time (1999) there was a way to process it through Canada which made the price only $18 Thousand Dollars. I was lucky though, I approached the insurance company and did not give up until they agreed to pay for the operation themselves. I have written a book on this subject which should be out within the next 6 weeks. If you want a copy, please submit your request to: ******
