It is always very important that you understand exactly what surgery your daughter will undergo and you should ask as many questions as you need to help you feel comfortable with the decision. A few suggestions of questions include:
Why is this surgery necessary? What may happen if we don't do the surgery?
What is the surgeon's experience with this type of surgery?
How many times has he/she performed the surgery and what is the success rate?
What are the options if you decide not to go ahead with the surgery?
What is the expected outcome from the surgery?
What are the risks of this particular surgery?
How long will it take for recovery?
What is involved in recovery?
Where can you get a second opinion?
