Reply to "How common is a one step pouch surgery?"

I was so sick and had so many complications that the planned three-step ended up taking four. And I had one of the best surgeons on the US.

If you've got a surgeon who says you're a good candidate, then what's the benefit to a planned two-step? None that I can think of. But as said, run from a surgeon who guarantees a one-step since the final assessment will happen when you're under anesthesia already. Sometimes someone can seem a good candidate, but then seeing the organs up close can eliminate it from being a good option.
