Why We Play the Radio in Our Operating Room

Trueman is a men's specialty clinic. We know how hard it is to voice a man's private concerns out loud. Many of the patients who walk into our consultation room struggle to open up at first.

It's the question we hear most about surgery under local anesthesia.

Let me answer honestly.

There can be slight pain when the anesthetic is injected.

But after surgery, most patients tell us the same thing.

There's a reason we invest so much time in consultations.

Entering the operating room with unanswered questions doubles the tension.

Patients who come in with a full understanding of all of this are far more at ease during surgery.

It's also why the surgeon personally explains what's happening during the procedure.
