If you are unsure whether your condition is suitable for management at our clinic, please call us and our team will advise you appropriately.
Before proceeding with any procedure, your GP will conduct a thorough assessment of your condition, explain what the procedure involves, discuss any risks or considerations, and obtain your informed consent. Depending on the nature of the procedure, local anaesthetic may be used to ensure your comfort throughout.
Following your procedure, your GP or nurse will provide you with clear aftercare instructions and advise you on what to expect during recovery, any signs of concern to watch for, and when to return for a follow-up or dressing change if required.
