Default should I eat wild salmon sushi from a reputable fish monger?

Hi, I'm new to this group. I just recently moved from an area that had
an awesome Japanese market that sold all kinds of sushi grade fish. Now
that I live in Fairfield, CT I can't find a Japanese market that
specializes in raw fish. I have found a reputable fish monger who won't
sell farmed Salmon because of the health concerns but tells me his wild
Salmon is flown in daily. I've already bought and eaten this salmon raw
twice (which had absolutely no smell) and it was delicious. Tonight
I've been reading about this wonderful worm called Anisakis that seems
to be found in salmon. Should I be concerned? I understand flash
freezing kills the worms but may not kill the larva. Should I ask the
fishmonger if it's been flash frozen? If it hasn't do I have to abandon
my addiction? My love of preparing my own salmon sushi is going to be
the death of me.
