Office Follow-Up

After going home from hospital, there may be several aspects to your ongoing care, but one of the most important is the need for follow-up visits with the surgeon who performed your procedure. These visits take place at the Asheville Heart offices (where you probably had your initial consultation) and will involve physical checks of the wound, blood pressure and other tests, and discussions with the surgeon about your rate of progress.

You should take advantage of this time to ask questions about the recovery process, medications, lifestyle changes, or any other issues that may be of concern.

Remember, the entire Asheville Heart team is committed to the best possible surgical outcome for every single patient.
