But in the end it is all worth it.Hey there! don't be nervous about your new surgeon, because these surgeons have to be very well trained before they perform the lap-band. And if he was a surgeon before he knows the risks trust your doctor he most likely knows what he is doing. Have a great day!Hey There! My Name Is Sara, And I Had My Surgery Last Week.
