Choosing your doctor.
Jun 19, 2014
If this surgery is going to be a success or not depends a lot on your doctor. You need to know a lot of different things. Research the doctor. Ask him how many patients he has lost. Also a great big thing to think about it if your doctor picks and chooses who he will do makes a difference. If he only does surgery on people under 300 lbs with little other problems his success rate will be better then people who are way up there in weight, have ashma, breathing problems etc. RESEARCH your doctor. So important..... How many surgeries has he done. I read that until the doctor has at least 100 people he has done surgery on then it is not safe unless he has someone with more experience with him. The doctor has the biggest impact on how the surgery will go. You have the biggest impact on following directions and how much you will lose.
Good luck to you all
