Approach to patient care

Clear options. Informed decisions.

A consultation is designed to clarify the diagnosis, review prior treatment, and compare reasonable options. Dr. Sabbah discusses expected benefits, material risks, recovery, alternatives, and the possibility that a procedure may not provide adequate relief.

When appropriate, treatment planning may involve coordination with urology, orthopedics, gynecology, primary care, or another specialty. The goal is an informed decision—not a predetermined procedure.
