Afternoon facelift and eyelids surgery. Should I wait for a morning time slot instead?

Question

I've been offered an afternoon timeslot surgery. Should I wait for a morning timeslot surgery instead? I'm concerned that my doctor will not have enough time to see the outcome of the surgery results or any possible complications before he leaves the hospital for the day until next morning.

hi there,
any responsible doctor will not leave you after the surgery if s/he's not 100% sure about how you feel post-op. I usually perform 2-3 surgeries a day, and time of the day doesn't matter to me... But I don't rush to any hospital for the rest of the day. Just focus on my private practice. 
best regards,

Hi 
Thanks you for sending your question and my very best wishes with your surgery. 
Any decent surgeon will make very effort to provide the best clinical care for his patients . 
I don't think you have to worry too much about the timing of surgery especially if you have chosen the right surgeon .
