Preoperative Exam

What To Expect

Our preoperative exams are like a health check-up on steroids. Here's what you can expect:

• Thorough Check-Up: Dr. Chow will give you a complete once-over, checking everything from your heart to your lungs.
• Health History Deep Dive: We'll chat about your past health issues, any meds you're taking, and lifestyle factors that might affect your surgery.
• Custom Tests: Depending on what we find, Dr. Chow might order some tests to get a clearer picture of your health.
• Risk Review: We'll identify any potential bumps in the road and make a plan to smooth them out.
• Surgery Green Light: If needed, we'll provide the all-clear for your procedure.
• Timing is Everything: We usually do these exams a few weeks before your surgery, giving us time to address any concerns.
• No Extra Charge: For our concierge members, these exams are included in your membership. It's one less thing to worry about!

‍Remember, honesty is key during these exams. The more we know, the better we can prepare you for a successful surgery and smooth recovery.
