Dr. Chute did my RNY in December. His staff is wonderful! They've all been (even the doctor himself) through it themselves, so they know firsthand what patients are experiencing. They gave me a great tool to work with, and have been really good with follow up even though I live over an hour away.
I highly recommend them if this is the route you want to go.
Doc

I'm going through MBS & Abbott Northwest!!!! Yaaaaaaaaaay!!! 
I think I may have chosen Dr. Drew but we'll see. I trust that if, for some reason, he can't do it when the time comes, that both Dr. Chute and Dr. Schwartz are both incredibly competent! I've only gone to the Intro so far and I already feel like family there!!

Yeah, they are good, no doubt about it! Would I trust my wife to anyone who wasn't? 
I also have my belated one year checkup while Peanut's in the hospital.

Peanut has been on the second round of liquid diet for over a week now. We have just finished packing, and she's gathered her dietary needs for the trip. The lady next door came over and got the key so she can take of our mail and feed the cat while we're gone. In ten hours, we are out of here, as she is going to work with me. After I get done teaching, we're hopping in the car and heading north.
We'll check into the hotel and she can do all her final preps (while I go find a good place to eat!  ), then early Tuesday morning, it's show time!! She slept on while I got ready and left for the hospital last time, but no such luxury for me! I gotta be her pillar of strength! I'm okay with that!
Besides, while she's suffering in the hospital, I'm going to be sampling restaurants! (I've already done the suffering thing. Vastly over-rated!! ) I don't get up to the Cities on overnight trips alone! I'll bet they've got restaurants you just can't find in our little town of 10,000!!
