Hi Ashley-

I actually think it works better if you do some research so that when you go to the seminar, you can judge what the surgeon is saying and know if this is a good place to get banded. Also, I sent all the surgeons I was thinking of using a questionnaire so I wouldn't waste my time going to the seminars of the obvious non-candidates.
