What to expect during your consultation

The success and safety of your hand procedure depends very much on your complete candidness during your consultation. You’ll be asked a number of questions about your health, desires and lifestyle.

Be prepared to discuss:

• Why you want the procedure, your expectations and desired outcome
• Medical conditions, drug allergies and medical treatments
• Use of current medications, vitamins, herbal supplements, alcohol, tobacco and drugs
• Previous surgeries

Your surgeon may also:

• Evaluate your general health status and any pre-existing health conditions or risk factors
• Examine your hand in detail
• Discuss your options and recommend a course of treatment to restore hand function
• Discuss likely outcomes of hand surgery and any risks or potential complications
