Plastic Surgery Consultation

WEBVTT 00:00:06.920 --> 00:00:08.800 What patient can expect when they come here? 00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:13.040 Usually, they will have already filled out their intake information online 00:00:13.120 --> 00:00:14.480 before they even get here. 00:00:14.720 --> 00:00:16.000 Then when they get to the front desk, 00:00:16.080 --> 00:00:19.360 they're going to be met by one of our two very friendly receptionists up front. 00:00:19.840 --> 00:00:25.520 From there, they'll be taken back where my nurse will then visit with them 00:00:25.585 --> 00:00:26.920 before I go in and see them. 00:00:27.280 --> 00:00:29.800 They'll go over what their concerns are, 00:00:30.080 --> 00:00:34.120 what the different treatment options might be after I see them, 00:00:34.200 --> 00:00:35.600 and get them prepared. 00:00:35.680 --> 00:00:37.680 Then my nurse will come in and visit with me 00:00:37.760 --> 00:00:39.440 about the patient that she just saw. 00:00:39.640 --> 00:00:42.720 We'll go over things together, look at the pictures that were taken. 00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:46.920 I'll have some an idea of what options are 00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:49.040 before even going to visit with the patient. 00:00:49.600 --> 00:00:52.640 Then I'll go back into the room, go over those same concerns, 00:00:52.720 --> 00:00:56.480 make sure that everything checks off as far as what I was reported to. 00:00:57.280 --> 00:00:58.920 Then I'll do a physical exam, 00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:01.720 and then present the different treatment options for the patients. 00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:04.840 I don't decide the treatments for them. I give them the options. 00:01:05.160 --> 00:01:07.600 I will tell them what I think is going to be their best option, 00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:10.000 but ultimately, it's up to them. 00:01:10.200 --> 00:01:12.080 It's their body. It's their choice.
