Meet and Greet

Thursday, June 16, 2016

So to help you pick your surgeon, they will often have a meet and greet. You are able to sit down the the surgeon and talk about the surgical plan and the procedures for your baby. This is the time to ask all the questions you have. Here are some good questions to ask:

1. When do they operate on my baby?
2. Where is the surgery done at?
3. Can you see any pictures of there work (keep in mind they will probably show you the best ones but its still good too see results of there work?)
4. Ask if there is any support groups you could join?
5. Ask for the timeline of surgeries your child will need to have?
6. Ask about insurance?
7. How long have they been practicing?
8. Do they have a team of other doctors for your babes needs?

Make sure you feel comfortable with the surgeon you have picked. Its good to feel like you can ask questions in a safe environment because trust me you will have questions. Once you have chosen your surgeon the next time you will most likely see them is about 2-3 weeks after your baby is born to give you and the baby some time to bond and adjust.
