The possible use of an anesthetic pump postoperatively, to minimize discomfort, will be discussed. All of your questions will be answered. If additional questions arise, Dr. Taleisnik will meet with you, or speak with you by telephone, as many times as necessary. A final visit is usually scheduled several days prior to surgery, in order to ensure that your health is satisfactory for surgery, to provide prescriptions, to review all instructions, and to answer any final questions....

Take time to understand what Dr. Corbin is explaining. Sometimes patients hear only what they want to hear and they do not actually understand what the surgeon is saying. If you are feeling overwhelmed, slow the conversation down a bit. If you do not understand ask for an explanation. Educate the surgeon on you. Share with Dr. Corbin your expectations and surgical goals. Educating Dr. Corbin on what you want is as important as Dr. Corbin educating you on the risks of surgery and if your surgical expectations are realistic. Always be upfront and candid. Do not withhold any information, however insignificant it may seem, as it may affect your treatment or surgery. Always share any medication(s) or drugs you are taking and tell us if you are allergic to anything when the Doctor or Nurse are obtaining your history and physical. Understand the costs involved for your plastic surgery procedure. For most patients the financial part of surgery is of concern. Bargain hunting has its place, but not when it comes to surgery.
