The clinic team first reviews your request and medical history as a preliminary assessment. During consultation, the surgeon evaluates your expectations, anatomy and overall health together with you. Share your current medications and chronic conditions fully. A remote preliminary call is possible, but a definitive plan requires a physical examination. Pricing varies by procedure, scope and hospital arrangements. Confirm current pricing and availability directly with the clinic.
