  5. Here are a few that I asked: 1) How many of your surgeries have resulted in slippage or erosion. 2) How do I get intouch with someone after normal office hours if I have a question/problem 3) Where will my port be located 4) What is your general procedure concerning fills, how long between visits, who performs them etc. 5) What do you require for a stay afterwards
