Any Chicagoians?

greetings,

new to the board, in the very beginning stages of this process. went to my first seminar today at alexian brothers. was wondering those in this area, how did you choose your doctor, do you recommend them? i have a bmi of 50 with no comorbidities and just ready to do this. i was originally considering RNY until i found out about the sleeve and now this just seems to be the better choice for me.

any advice, info etc. on this journey is greatly appreciated.
