Insurance and Surgical Fees

At ESSI, we specialize exclusively in advanced laparoscopic and robotic surgery for endometriosis, adenomyosis, pelvic pain, and complex gynecologic conditions. Our surgeons are internationally recognized for their precision, skill, and commitment to restoring quality of life for patients who often have been searching for answers for years.

We have a financial program for you. Whether you have commercial insurance with out-of- network benefits or you’re a self-pay patient, we will guide you through the options, so you know exactly what to expect.

New Patient Registration

All patients must complete registration with our practice before scheduling a consultation or surgery. Once registered, you will be scheduled for a TeleMed or In-Person Consultation with Exam with one of our surgeons.

Consultation & Visit Fees

TeleMed Consultation - Understanding Your TeleMed Options

We offer two types of TeleMed consultations, each designed for different points in your care:

1. No-Cost TeleMed Consultation with a Senior Member of our Clinical Team

• Once your registration has been completed, we offer a brief, introductory appointment to review your case and determine whether surgery with our team is recommended.
  
  
• It is not a comprehensive medical evaluation, and no prescriptions, imaging orders, or detailed treatment planning are provided during this call.
  
  
• If surgery is recommended, we will then guide you to the next steps which may include an MRI review, or a patient visit with our doctor.

2. Comprehensive TeleMed Consultation with our Medical Team – $250

• This is a full medical evaluation with one of our surgeons, designed for patients ready to move forward with diagnosis or treatment planning.
  
  
• Includes review of your medical history, discussion of symptoms, evaluation of prior imaging or surgical reports, and a detailed treatment plan.
  
  
• Time is reserved to answer your questions and discuss next steps in depth.

By offering both options, we make it possible for new patients to learn whether surgery might be the right path before committing to a full paid consultation or an in-Person visit, while also providing a way to move directly into detailed surgical and treatment planning if recommended.

New Patient In-Person Office Visit

Your new patient visit is a comprehensive evaluation with one of our expert surgeons. This visit is designed to give you a clear understanding of your diagnosis, treatment options, and next steps.

Your visit will include:

• In-person visits our Physicians will perform an ultrasound, Doppler flow study and Pelvic Mapping
• Review of your medical history and current symptoms
• Evaluation of any prior imaging or surgical reports
• Discussion of treatment and surgical options tailored to you
• Time to address your questions and concerns

Fees for New Patient In-Person Visit:

• $900 with Dr. Vidali
• $750 with Senior Medical Staff

This fee reflects the dedicated time and resources we provide for each patient and will still apply if you choose to decline any of the services offered during your visit.

All Other Consultations, MRI Reviews and Next Step Appointments (TeleMed or In-Person) - $250

Returning patients with Full Exam - $400

We will submit a claim to your insurance if you have out-of-network benefits for possible reimbursement. The self-pay rate applies to patients with no insurance, in-network–only insurance, or high-deductible plans. All fees are due at the time of your appointment.
