Your Plastic Surgeon Should
• Answer all of your questions thoroughly and clearly. • Ask about your thoughts to recommended treatment. • Offer alternatives, where appropriate, without pressuring you to consider unneeded or additional procedures. • Welcome questions about your procedure and his or her professional qualifications, experience, costs and payment policies. • Make clear the risks of surgery and possible outcomes. • Give you information about the procedure you want. • Leave the final decision to you. |
