this is what i've learned, anyone saying that they havent lost a patient yet, is not very experienced and probably only has done a few surgeries. That
"0%" mortality rate should have sent you a huge red flag.
even the most experienced physicians if they've done at least 500 bypasses have lost at least one patient. And as I have said, if you do more research it will tell you to beware of surgeons saying they have 0 mortality rate because they are not that experienced.
I'm sure your hubby will do fine, but you must do more research on that doctor ask how many gastric bypasses he's performed last year or total. Also get on your states medical licensincing website. I used to do that for a living and its amazing to see how many people dont know about their physicians past.
