    About 9k iirc. That was probably with Peter Barton Smith in London .

    If you contact an endometriosis org. they will advise.

    I paid around 12k for surgery with Chris Mann. It depends on surgery needed but anywhere between 6 and 12 is the norm.
    It can be cheaper in other European countries. Check out Nancys Nook on facebook for a list of approved skilled surgeons.
    Your insurance may cover you, check policy if you have one. Also look at the Cross Border Directive Scheme in which the HSE will reimburse what the surgery would cost in Ireland, usually about 3k.

    Yes still available as I have been in contact regarding my application. Think it is relevant to all EU countries so brexit shouldn't impact?
    May be wrong tho!
