If you have the coin this is the place to have it done. I had it done 20 years ago, local anaesthetic, you walk off the OR table, we were playing pool (summers they have a 3 hole golf course) that night and watching Caddyshack. I rememberer it clearly as we were all laughing are butts off holding our wieners.
Next day I went home, two days later I was back on the job, desk duty, and after just over 4 weeks I was back working at full capacity.
I owned my own business and couldn't afford the down time, so it was totally worth it to me.
If you're overweight they do require you go on their diet before the operation.
When I went there were everything from Pennsylvania Amish to a rich guy who came all the way from Australia just to have his operation.
