*if* HCP's weren't so quirky about clipping tongues, GP's would do it in the office and it wouldn't have to cost more than a normal health-check visit. I guess if I'd have it done at my GP's office (if I had an infant and she/dr would be willing) it wouldn't probably cost more than $50 and be covered by insurance.

Our 6mo old will have her frenotomy next week and the projected cost is
approx. $500. which includes the initial consultation. From my research
that's about average for a frenotomy.
~~~ And this is usually for frenotomy which is a "simple" release with
sterile scissors, perhaps some local anaesthetic and brief cautery with silver
nitrate (though not usually). I believe a laser release costs more. Or
maybe that's just in my area?
