You will be seen by your surgeon for specialist assessment and management of symptoms.

 

Your surgeon will work in collaboration with your cardiologist, GP and any other health professionals involved in your care keeping them informed of the outcome of these consultations. 

​

Some of the topics that can be discussed include: 

 

• Pain assessment

• Review of symptoms

• Past medical history

• Treatment options 

• Recovery from surgery

​

If an operation is necessary, you will be given the opportunity to meet your anaesthetist. You can discuss fully the process of anaesthesia and they will answer any questions you have.

If you require surgery, we will arrange an operation date that is convenient for you. 

 

You will be cared for by a skilled and knowledgeable expert team at Braemar Hospital including high quality theatres with the latest technologies.
