Patient Safety
Patient safety is very important to Dr. Rai and his staff. He understands that surgery can be very scary to patients. We try to reassure patients that they have a great team around them that cares about them and their safety. Here are ways we try to make the surgical experience as safe and comfortable for patients as possible:
- We operate in our own fully certified operating room. Our operating room is certified by the AAAASF (https://www.quada.org/). We meet the same safety criteria and have the same safety equipment as hospital or surgical centers. The advantage of using our own operating suite is it provides a much more private and convenient surgical experience.
- We only use board certified MD anesthesiologists to provide your anesthesia care. The anesthesiologists have worked with us for a long time and are familiar with our procedures and our operating room. Dr. Rai likes to tell his patients that he would let any of them take care of any member of his family. And if he couldn’t say that then they wouldn’t be working with us.
- You will have a registered nurse recovering you after your procedure who is trained on providing the best post operative care for you.
- We are in the professional buildings of Medical City Dallas. While we do not expect any emergency issues – if they were to arise, we would be able to take you directly into the hospital ourselves.
Dr. Rai and his team make patient safety their highest priority. We know our patients put their trust in us and we will do everything in our power to provide them with the safety and security they deserve.
