Hiya,I also had to choose my hospital,I made my decision on the shortest waiting list as some make u wait years and I didn't want to do that,google each hospital and their surgeons,good luck in deciding xx

I googled Taunton, they were the first hospital in the southwest to do bariatric surgery. They really go deep into all the checks and so take a while to get to the surgery. I did fancy that hospital but like you I am going to ask for the quickest route.
