We are pleased to treat patients that are willing to travel to us. We are committed to make your travel a most worthwhile one. St George is a great vacation destination spot all year due to our warm temperatures all year and our many National Parks just a short drive away.
Do I need a Consultation first?
Yes. However our consultations are sufficient to do over the phone if you are not able to make it into our office. All the necessary paperwork will be filled out before your procedure. If you do not have the opportunity to schedule a consultation before your procedure, our staff will make sure all your questions and concerns are answered.
What if I am traveling alone?
Out of town patients are limited to transportation immediately after the procedure if traveling alone. If you are traveling alone we will take to and from your hotel on the day of your procedure. The local anesthesia does prohibit you from driving for up to 12 hours after your procedure.
What if I am traveling with a friend/Spouse?
If you are traveling with a companion or friend, they would be responsible to pick you up following the procedure.
How early should I arrive for my appointment?
Our procedure schedule is set to have you arrive one hour early time for your appointment. This will allow us to do our pre-op details and give time for the anesthesia to take effect. Please arrive on time for your appointment.
Do I need to bring anything or purchase supplies before my procedure?
No. You will be given all the medications, supplies, instructions and garments you will need for your recovery. Wear comfortable, lose fitting clothes (sweat suits are ideal) and please pack lightly since carrying heavy luggage immediately after your procedure is not advised.
What about follow up my appointment?
Follow up appointments for our out of town patients are not required. Our office will stay in contact with you over the phone and you can schedule a follow up appointment any time your travels bring you back to St. George
Do I need to find my own Hotel?
We have teamed up with the Comfort Inn Hotel that is just a half mile down Riverside Drive from Hollywood Body. It is one of the newer and more luxurious hotels in St. George. We can book your hotel stay with your procedure at our discount. If you would like to stay at a hotel of your choice, please feel free to do so.
