Procedures

1 Pre-Consultation

We expect you to have some queries before you book in for your first consultation. Please call or email us so we can talk you through what to expect. Including the cost of the consultation if you are funding your treatment yourself.

If you are ready to make an appointment, we will take some contact details from you and the reason you would like to see Mr Kalu.

If you are an insured patient, you will need to have your membership number and the authorisation code to hand. Please speak to your insurer if you do not have these details.

2 Consultation

All patients are required to have a consultation before their procedure as you will need to undergo a full health assessment with Mr Kalu before any surgery can be booked. It it also essential that you understand the risks of any planned procedure and the alternative options available to you. The consultation is a chance for you to ask questions and have one-on-one time with the surgeon before you decide to proceed.

3 Surgery

Once you have decided you would like to go ahead with your procedure, we will discuss available surgery dates with you and reserve your preferred choice. For general anaesthetic procedures, you will be required to have a pre-operative assessment with the hospital’s nursing team. Some patients may also need to have diagnostic tests, such as scans, and a pre-operative appointment with Mr Kalu. At any point between deciding to have surgery and undergoing the procedure, please do not hesitate to ask any questions you may have.

4 Recovery

After your surgery it is important to give your body time to recover. We will let you know how to care for yourself in the post-operative period and what activities you will be able to undertake.
