Patient Surgery Handbook
Inside this guide you will find information on how to prepare for surgery here at the NYU Langone Medical Center’s Center for Musculoskeletal Care. It provides a description of what to expect before, during, and after surgery, and how you and your doctor can work together to make the process run smoothly. This information is not a substitute for a conversation with your doctor.
