I have a bunch of questions to ask my surgeon before surgery (scheduled for November 6) but I’m wondering if I’m forgetting to ask something important.

Are there any surgery or recovery- specific questions you wish you had asked your surgeon? Or maybe somebody could direct me to a specific post for some suggestions? Thanks for any help!

The only thing I would have liked to ask was about his technique. I have been watching some of the surgeons procedures and some stitch the sleeve over the staples, others don't. I never asked, and have no idea if he did that extra step or not.

My surgeon opted to go robotic for my surgery as he was running late (I was the first surgery, and he was a little late). I personally think my speedy recovery was because it was robotic. So maybe I would ask if he/she plans to go robotic or not?

Thank you! This was helpful!
