What You Can Expect
Consultation
On your first visit to our office, you will meet with Dr. Foster to discuss what you would like to achieve through aesthetic surgery, and what you can expect from the procedure(s) he recommends. Then, you will meet with our Patient Coordinator who will answer your questions, tailor an individual plan for your surgery and recovery, and assist you with all related details.
Surgery
On the morning of your surgery, you will be escorted to a private treatment room where you will change into a gown and slippers and meet with Dr. Foster to go over your procedure(s). Then, our Anesthesiologist will review with you your medical history,explain the anesthesia process and accompany you into the operating room. When your procedure is completed, you will be taken into our recovery room where Dr. Foster's team of Registered Nurses will monitor your vital signs and attend to your needs with warming blankets, soothing compresses, and medication for any discomfort. .
When you are awake and alert, you may have your family and friends visit with you. Before you leave, you will be given instructions for your post-operative care. We can also arrange for one of our specially-trained, private Registered Nurses to attend to you for as long as you request. You may even enjoy requesting one of our private-duty nurses who is trained in touch therapy for an even more relaxing recovery experience. For out-of-town patients, we can recommend nearby luxury or affordable hotels.
That evening, our anesthesiologist will call you to make certain you are resting comfortably. During your recovery period, our medical staff is available 24 hours a day to answer questions and respond to your needs.
