I Am Looking for a Doctor in the Vancouver Area for Smart Lipo and if Needed a Tummy Tuck?

I am really nervous because how do i find out which doctor does the most tummy tucks? as i hear that the doctor that does the most is more experienced. I have hyperthyroid, is it safe for me to have lipo and tummy tuck. i have had two kids via c sections which were easy for me to recover from but i had to stay in the hosiptal for two days. Tummy tuck being such a big procedure, it scares me that there is no over night stay in a hospital and also the calgary woman died after tummy tuck.
