What happens during surgery?
Once you have decided to proceed to surgery, you'll need to learn what to expect from the surgery and create a treatment plan for the best results afterwards.
Preparing mentally and physically for surgery is essential to a successful result — understanding the process and your role in it will help you recover more quickly and have fewer problems.
Rest assured, our team will be here to help every step of the way.
Whether pre-surgery, the day of your operation or your recovery period, our goal is to make the process as simple and easy as possible. You can call us on (09) 309 0912 between 8 AM and 5 PM on weekdays.

Before surgery, you will need a check up to make sure you don't have any conditions that could interfere with the anaesthetic, the surgery or their outcome. Routine tests, such as blood tests, urine tests and X-rays, are usually performed a week before the surgery.

Whether it’s a small operation or something major, having surgery means you’ll need to take time afterwards to rest and recover.
Make sure someone is available to take you home (you cannot drive for at least 24 hours due to anaesthetic medications), do not eat or drink on the trip home, avoid greasy food and only try eating when you’re hungry.
It's also essential to take your pain medicine as directed.
