WE WORK CLOSELY WITH YOUR SURGEON

Communication is important for optimal recovery after a surgical procedure. We follow a number of post-surgical protocols and take the necessary steps to optimize healing. We will be in contact with your referring physician for guidance regarding any precautions and/or recommendations based on your particular procedure.
