Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can I schedule a virtual consultation before traveling?
No, the initial consultation must allow Dr. Driver to conduct a physical examination. During this appointment, you can discuss your condition, review your surgical options, and plan your treatment. It’s recommended that you also write down any questions you may have before this session. This helps you feel prepared and confident ahead of your foot or ankle surgery.
How long should I plan to stay after surgery?
How long you stay after foot or ankle surgery depends on the procedure and your recovery. Some out-of-town patients stay as little as 1-3 days near the surgical center for monitoring, starting the recovery, and attending follow-up appointments. More involved surgeries require the patient to stay in the area for several days and possibly be admitted to the hospital for closer monitoring. Post-operative appointments will need to be arranged, with sometimes weekly follow-up appointments for a few months.
Can someone accompany me during surgery and recovery?
It’s a good idea to have someone with you. A companion can provide comfort, help with transportation, and assist during your hospital stay and recovery at the hotel, making healing more manageable and successful. You will need to have a ride on the day of surgery.
