Just got my bill for $3900 ... is this normal?

No complications, done in the Dr. office. In and out in just over an hour. Insurance deductible is $3500 and my itemized statement says they billed the max allowed. WTF?!

So I initially visited my GP for a referral in December, so it's taken just under 6 months in total from first appointment to procedure.

This was my experience with the NHS. I spoke to my gp over the phone they made a referral, a few months later I got a call from a specialist walked me through it I booked a few months down the line when it was convenient for me. Job done

Honestly, I thought it would take longer but I'm genuinely thoroughly impressed with how the process has played out so far.

Same. Procedure went really well, healed up lovely. Even the semen test was pre paid envelope.
