Initial Consultation
During your consultation, our surgeons will take the time to understand your medical history, symptoms, and concerns. Our goal is to offer you a thorough evaluation of your diagnosis and the potential treatment options available.
Preparing for Surgery
Preparing for surgery is a collaborative process designed to help patients feel informed, confident, and ready for their procedure. Pre-operative tips, such as fasting or medication adjustments, may be suggested. Before your surgery, our team may schedule a detailed conversation to review the procedure, discuss potential risks, and answer your questions. This conversation allows you to share your concerns, preferences, and goals with your surgeon, allowing us to tailor your care plan accordingly.

After your procedure, recovery plans are customized to meet your specific needs. This may include guidance on pain management, physical activity, and follow-up appointments to monitor your progress. We are committed to helping you return to your daily activities quickly and comfortably.
