Hey Danny, good to have you here, welcome. Dr. Marchand has a good reputation from what I've heard. A doctor with 800 resurfacings is very experienced and will likely be a good choice.

I think you want to find out more about him and how confident you are with him. I certainly interviewed my doctor, having gone to several before. When you do talk with him or her, here's a good list of questions to ask about how experienced they are, how they go about treating patients, and what the treatment post surgery is.

This is a process, you are not locked into one doctor, so if one doesn't do it for you, go to another. Dr. Marchand, from all reports is a good start.
