There is a tremendous amount of plastic surgery happening in the emergency room daily that you would never even think about until you find yourself needing one. However, are these emergency room doctors the best option when it comes to stitching up a nasty gash on your face, being treated for a bad burn from a scalding pot of soup or water, or a vicious dog bite? These are just a few common medical emergencies that happen daily in hospitals or urgent cares across the country. Do you know what you should do as a patient or advocate?

In this episode, Dr. Rady Rahban and his good friend and guest Emergency Room Dr. Dan Katz discuss scenarios where a plastic surgeon is recommended or needed. When should you inquire if a plastic surgeon is available or on-call? Who decides if a plastic surgeon is necessary? Is it the ER doctor, the hospital, or the insurance carrier? Join Dr. Rady and his guest as they delve into this eye-opening topic that will guide you on what you need to know next time you need to go to an emergency room.
