opinions needed please...

Hello Everyone..

I am pre-op and have a date set for Oct. 23rd

I interviewed my surgeon and found out he has

done about 1,000 weight loss surgery's with 200

of them being sleeves. What do you think, is that

enough experience?? I really like him and trust him.

But I'd like some opinions please. Thanks

His track record I think is good, he had one death from a complication which was a bypass but none for sleeve.
