Please call us to schedule your initial consultation.<\/strong><\/div>\n

We want you to feel confident, informed, and comfortable with your decision to have a surgical procedure. Our objectives are to maintain your good health and to assure your satisfaction with all aspects of your experience.<\/p>\n

Every member of our team takes pride in providing you with the highest level of service and medical care, from your first encounter through your last post-operative visit. We want to know if your experience is anything other than optimal.<\/p>\n

Your initial consultation<\/h3>\n

This is your appointment (virtual or in person) to meet with the surgeon and establish rapport. You will complete a form regarding your prior medical history before the consultation. If the area of concern is covered by clothing, you may be asked to partially undress and put on a gown, so that the surgeon will be able to examine the area.<\/p>\n

During the consultation, you should discuss your present problem and goals. The surgeon will ask you about details and relevant information in your past history, and perform an examination. Photographs may be taken for your medical record and also possibly submitted for insurance pre-authorization, if required.<\/p>\n

Once this important information has been gathered, the surgeon will explain the specifics of your condition and discuss the options available for treatment. The surgeon will also present the pros and cons of different options and the potential side effects and complications.<\/p>\n

You will have the opportunity to ask questions. We suggest you start a list of these as they come to mind: physical restrictions after surgery, recovery time, ability to care for yourself post-operatively, concerns regarding planned travel, events or vacations, etc.<\/p>\n

If after the consultation you decide to move forward with your procedure, we will contact your insurance (if applicable) and start the process of obtaining your benefits. After we receive a response from your insurance, one of our surgery schedulers will contact you to coordinate a date.<\/p>\n

If your procedure is of a cosmetic nature, you will be sent a quote regarding the fees. When you are ready to proceed, simply contact the surgery scheduler to coordinate a date.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":1389,"menu_order":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-2535","uch_location","type-uch_location","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stage.uchealth.org\/locations\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/uch_location\/2535","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stage.uchealth.org\/locations\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/uch_location"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stage.uchealth.org\/locations\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/uch_location"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stage.uchealth.org\/locations\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stage.uchealth.org\/locations\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1389"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stage.uchealth.org\/locations\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2535"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
