it depends on where you have it done at, a hospital 4k sounds about right, and outpatient surgery center about 2k plus about 700 up for the dr.

Well, life-termination and removal of a living human fetus costs maybe $500 at the high end, so a colonoscopy - which A) removes either little or no tissue; b) is performed through the already-present colonoscope c) only if polyps are present - should not cost that much more... What gives?
