  1. DR. GANESH RAMALINGAM Experienced General Surgeon

  2. Dr. Ganesh Ramalingam graduated from the National University of Singapore all the way back in 1997 and completed his post-graduate training at the Royal College of Surgeons in Edinburgh. Educating the new generation of doctors is also one of his passions. He tries his best to assist his juniors by being active in the Residency Program and he currently is the Proctor of the Fundamentals of Laparoscopic Surgery at Khoo Teck Puat Hospital. He also teaches courses and serves as an examiner at the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine when his schedule permits..

  3. WHAT SHOULD YOU EXPECT RIGHT BEFORE SURGERY? If you’re planning to have surgery, you’ll want to spend some time preparing. That means taking care of your health, learning as much as you can about the procedure, and getting to know the people who will be taking care of you. Planning ahead can help ensure you have a successful procedure and heal faster with a smooth recovery.

  4. Follow pre-surgery directions and diet. Unless you’re having only local anesthesia, you may be told not to eat or drink anything after midnight before your procedure. This is because of the rare risk of food or liquid in your stomach getting into your lungs while you’re under sedation or general anesthesia. Ask your physician anesthesiologist for guidance; you may be told you can drink clear liquids and take your regular medications.

  5. Bring a friend You won’t be allowed to drive after outpatient surgery, or even after a few days in the hospital if you’re taking pain medication. Plan to have someone take you home.

  6. WEAR COMFORTABLE CLOTHING Wear or bring loose-fitting clothing. Your body might be sore or swollen from surgery, or you may have bulky bandages over your incisions. Leave jewelry and valuables at home.

  7. Talk about with the physician anesthesiologist Sometime before the day of your surgery, you should meet with your physician anesthesiologist so he or she can gather the information that will help determine the right anesthesia care plan for you.

  8. Your fears It’s natural to fear surgery and anesthesia. If you’re afraid, tell your physician anesthesiologist. He or she can give you information to ease your mind and help you feel safe.

  9. Your recovery The physician anesthesiologist continues to care for you after surgery, so ask about how any pain will be managed and any concerns you have about recovery, returning home, and getting back to your normal routine.

  10. Always be careful! Thank You Website https://www.drganeshramalingam.com.sg/
