10 Questions to Ask Your Orthopedic Surgeon: Before Surgery, What You Need to Know


If you're considering surgery, it's important to find an orthopedic surgeon who takes the time to explain your condition and the medical procedure you need. Many people choose their surgeon based on referrals from friends or family members, but this isn't always the best way to make a decision. You need to be comfortable with your doctor and feel like you can trust them. These 10 questions will help you make the right choice for your surgery.

  3. What are the risks and complications associated with this surgery?

  4. What is the expected recovery time?
