First Consult today..What questiosn to ask?



Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I have been to the seminar but wanted to sit down with the surgeon today before I "start" the process as my husband still has questions ( me too ). Are there any questions that I definelty should ask? Were there any questions you wish you had asked at your consult? I am nervous and want to make sure I cover all questions.

Thanks

:bored:

Here are a few that I asked: 1) How many of your surgeries have resulted in slippage or erosion. 2) How do I get intouch with someone after normal office hours if I have a question/problem 3) Where will my port be located 4) What is your general procedure concerning fills, how long between visits, who performs them etc. 5) What do you require for a stay afterwards
