Your Fist Visit

Your First Visit

Future patients,

 

I want to personally welcome you to Louisiana Oral & Implant Surgery.  Thank you very much for choosing me to be your oral and maxillofacial surgeon.  My objective as your surgeon is to build your trust with clear and honest communication.  I want your first visit with us to be stress-free. My goal for your first visit is for you to leave with a clear understanding of your upcoming procedure, with no unanswered questions, and with a sense of comfort and trust.  Duing your first visit you will first be greeted by our front desk staff who will verify some important information about you before seating you in one of our consultation rooms. During your consultation with me, we will discuss the primary reason for your visit and your different options for treatment.  Depending on your situation, x-rays may be taken. I will also perform a thorough exam and review your medical history/medications to ensure your safety. After you decide on a treatment plan, we will discuss insurance and financial options with you prior to scheduling your appointment for your procedure. We will occasionally perform same-day surgery, but this may not always be possible and is only achievable in certain situations.  Please feel free to contact us prior to your visit with any questions. I look forward to meeting you soon.


 

Sincerely,


 

Nickolas Maskas DDS MD
