How Selected: It was the hospital my surgeon does this procedure.
Competitors: I can't make a comparison. I am rarely a patient for anything and nothing locally.
Comments: Post op I have found that some of the information is confusing and not very informative. I would even say that some of the information I have received from the personnel has slowed my weight loss progression. Hopefully after talking to my doctor, this has gotten straightened out and will be less confusing and much more useful information.
