What happens after my procedure?
You will be taken to the recovery room and monitored for a period before being discharged, and this is typically 20-30 minutes. You will be offered something to eat and drink prior to your discharge and receive post-procedure instructions and when to follow-up.
If your procedure was performed in a surgery center, a nurse will review post-procedure instructions with you, as well as explain any special instructions provided by Dr. Brown regarding diet, rest, medications, when to follow up with Dr. Brown or his P.A., and how to use any durable medical equipment such as a neck or back brace, or sling immobilization which may have been ordered.
