Is this surgery performed here... Has anyone had this surgery done? If so, did you have to travel somewhere else in order to get it?

Dr Todd in Anchorage does lap bands and bypass surgery. I chose to have bypass surgery done in Edmonds, Wa Dec 22 instead of here in Anchorage.  You can call his office and I think once a week they have a meeting in the medical complex of Alaska Regional.  I've seen Dr Todd in the past and the reason I choose to have my surgery elsewhere is the fact that his office is very diorganized and everytime I go there I miss a half of day of work.  I think he's a good caring Dr but AI can't deal with all of the disorginazation.  So far I've lost 35lbs as of Dec 22.  Only problem post surgery was I had problems with my lungs but that cleared up within a couple of weeks and I was back in Anchorage and back to work in 2 weeks
