Certainly, he is selective about his operative patients. If he does think you are a good surgical candidate, you probably are, whthere or not you choose to have surgery with him.

I would second Alison's suggestion that while you are there, visit with at least one of the other docs. It is a very good thing to have multiple opinions, and surprising what things they agree adn disagree on.



ALso, having been to see Brantigan and Sanders as well as several LA docs I'd be happy to share advice or anser questions by PM if you have any. (Of course, many here have seen him so I don't mean to say my opinions are better or worse, and certainly I found my own experiences with all the docs to be somewhat different than I expected based on others' comments')

best of luck to you
