Patient Info

Dr. Cross operating in a tent in Iraq.

When you need surgery, it can be a very stressful time.  You may be feeling poorly, or you may be experiencing significant pain.  That's why it is important to be comfortable with your surgeon.  That is also why your surgeon should be willing to take the time to explain the process from start to finish.  It is also important to understand that sometimes during the visit things are mentioned or discussed that make perfect sense only to not be so clear once you leave the office.   

As we continue to build the site, the links below will eventually take you to some of the more common problems and explain treatment options as well as details of the surgery and things you can do pre-operatively and post-operatively to maximize return to you regular activities.  So be sure to keep checking back!
