General Instructions to Patients

The best surgical results depend upon both the doctor and the patient. The following instructions are important to follow. Write down questions you may have so they can be discussed prior to any surgical procedure. It is important that we know about any medical problems and medicines you are using. Aspirin and non steroidal antiinflammatory agents (Motrin, ibuprofen etc.) can cause bleeding and bruising, and so should be avoided two weeks before surgery, and one week after surgery. Please refer to our Aspirin Caution Sheet for further details.
