My objective is to give you my best effort. That means not rushing through your surgery. I take my time and like to be meticulous. There are many things that must be done before the operation can even start, such as washing and preparing the area, making sure that your body is well cushioned and your legs are placed in special boots to compress them during the surgery. Likewise, at the end of surgery I need to wash you and apply a special well padded dressing. But rest assured that being asleep for hours is generally very safe, so the 5-6 hours you sleep will be just fine. I will also wait around in recovery after the surgery to be certain that all is going well before I leave.
