Brief Answer:
yes your decision is ok
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
The professor in a medical college is the highest rank possible, and they are the most XXXXXXX and highly experienced among the lot. So, don't worry about him. You can go ahead with the procedure at that hospital.
And dressing in a fistula surgery is nothing but sitting in a tub of lukewarm water with 10 ml of antiseptic solution added to it for 15 mins, 3-4 times a day (Sitz bath). So that also should not be an issue.
So be relaxed, and go for it. Everything should be fine.
