STAAR Surgical’s Post

Patients' surgical documentation is an important part of their whole journey, especially for their future care. In our centre, all patients that have surgery receive a detailed surgical report and multiple photos of before and after. At the post-op consultation, Dr Kyriakopoulos will see the patient in our clinic and provide them with photos from their surgery, talking them through what was done. We believe it is within patients rights to receive proper documentation of their surgery, including footage of their surgery. Having photos of surgery, the patient will be able to see exactly where their endometriosis was and how it is after it was removed. They can also send them to their current treating doctor(s), or their previous doctor(s), who might have told them that there is nothing wrong with them. For us, providing patients with surgical photos is a way of building trust and, at the same time, to show that we are confident in our team's surgical skills and experience with endometriosis. Proper, detailed surgical documentation including images can serve as educational material for many people, for us as a team, for the patient, their doctors and other healthcare staff. Is like a library that can be accessed whenever it's needed. #endometriosis #endometriosisgreece #ace #athenscentreforendometriosis #athensendometriosiscentre #drdinos

Patient recovery does not revolve around a typical 9-5 schedule. Just because it's the weekend doesn't mean my job as a surgeon is finished. Sometimes, I need to go into the hospital to check in on patients who are recovering on the weekend. At Axis, our patients are like family. If we have a patient in the hospital recovering from surgery, we make sure to follow up with them and track their recovery around the clock! We're there no matter the date or time, checking in on the progress of our patients. Patient recovery is and has always been our main priority. #weekendrounds #spinesurgeon #patientrecovery
