Well, first there are few different kinds of surgery when we speak about OSA. You didn’t say what operation your father will have. I had a jaw surgery and I can tell you that it’s not so complicated. Also I can not tell it’s easy but you don’t need to worry too much. This surgery can solve the problem.
