When planning for a circumcision, it’s essential to understand the time commitment involved. Here’s what you can anticipate:
- Pre-Procedure Consultation:
This initial, thorough, and informative meeting, which lasts around 20 minutes, is a crucial part of the process. The Circumcision Doctor, Dr. Ashraf Saddik, will discuss the procedure in detail, answer any questions you may have, and ensure that you and your child are fully prepared for the surgery. This comprehensive consultation will leave you confident and reassured with appropriate, tailored, informed consent.
You or the guardian’s parents will sign the written consent form.
You will maintain your copy.
- The Circumcision Surgery:
The procedure is remarkably quick, taking about 10 minutes. It involves the surgical removal of the foreskin and is performed under anaesthesia.
For a child within 12 months, the surgery can be performed on the same day.
Otherwise, a rescheduled operation date will be given.
Circumcision Doctor Dr. Ashraf Saddik operates early, starting at seven o’clock in the morning, ensuring a swift and efficient process for your child’s well-being.
- Post-Procedure Monitoring:
After the surgery, a thorough observation period will last approximately 90 minutes. This ensures that recovery is smooth and that there are no immediate complications. The child is fed, pain-free, passing urine, and has no bleeding, providing you with the confidence that your child is in good hands.
The Circumcision Doctor, Dr. Ashraf Saddik, will provide you with written, detailed postoperative care instructions to follow.
Total Time at the Facility:
Overall, you should spend at least 120 minutes at the medical facility. This includes consultation, surgery, and postoperative monitoring.
This comprehensive understanding of the time involved in the circumcision process will help you feel fully prepared and informed.
Every patient is unique so that times may vary slightly. However, this comprehensive approach ensures efficient and caring service throughout the process.
The Circumcision Doctor, Dr. Ashraf Saddik, welcomes interstate patients and will accommodate their needs individually.
