Approach to Patient Care and Safety

Dr. Roberson places an emphasis on shared decision-making. Understanding what a patient hopes to change is central to developing a treatment plan with realistic goals.

Use your consultation to discuss your health history, previous operations, medications, weight changes, and recovery needs. Ask about the risks and alternatives for your proposed procedure, the anesthesia plan, surgical setting, and follow-up care.

For body contouring after substantial weight loss, ask which areas can be treated together and whether separate operations would be more appropriate. The treatment plan depends on an individual assessment. Surgery involves risks, and results vary.
