Consent Clinic
Throughout the management of your condition informed consent is important and is a two-way process. Mike will give you information in a way that you understand and retain, able to weigh up the pros and cons including complications of each of the different options. Once we have decided what how we are going to manage the condition we will go through the written consenting process. After discussion, we will record on a document what you are having done and record the risks and complications of the procedure, and then both sign the document. At all times you can change your mind up until the day of surgery. I am able to offer a separate consenting clinic appointment, but appreciate your busy lives and you may not want to go through that extra step of coming back to the hospital for a separate consenting clinic.
