Why patients love arthroscopy:
✨ Smaller scars
✨ Less pain & swelling
✨ Faster recovery
✨ Home the same day

Foods rich in protein, calcium, vitamin D, vitamin C, and omega-3s help your body:
✔️ Repair tissue

Why can’t you eat before surgery?🤔🍽️

If you’re scheduled for surgery, you’ve probably heard the rule: nothing to eat or drink after a certain time. During anesthesia, your body’s natural reflexes (like coughing and swallowing) are temporarily turned off.

Fasting helps:
✔️ Protect your lungs
✔️ Reduce nausea and vomiting
✔️ Lower the risk of infection
✔️ Keep your surgery on schedule

Our team is here to guide you through every step of surgery preparation. Learn more today: https://bit.ly/4kDUDEB
