How to choose a surgeon you can trust
Choosing a surgeon is not a decision to take lightly. Do you have confidence in the person who is responsible for your care? This is one of many questions to consider as you choose an orthopedic or vascular surgeon. As you research vascular surgeons and orthopedic surgeons in the Sandusky area, you may also wish to consider the following:
- Is the physician’s board certification up-to-date?
- What’s the physician’s experience performing the type of surgery I need?
- What is the physician’s success, failure and complication rates?
- What is the hospital’s infection rate?
- Does the hospital where my surgery will be performed follow best practices?
