Welcome, Out of Town Patients
We are proud to welcome patients from all over the country. Dr. Sturgill has built a reputation for excellence in facial plastic surgery, and many of our patients choose to travel to Indianapolis to benefit from his expertise. We understand that traveling for surgery requires careful planning and consideration, so we are committed to making your experience as smooth and comfortable as possible.
Traveling for Your Procedure
We frequently have patients fly in from out of state or even from other countries to undergo surgery with Dr. Sturgill. We understand that traveling for surgery can be a significant decision, and we are here to support you every step of the way. From your initial consultation to your post-operative care, our team will work closely with you to ensure that your journey is seamless.
Your First Night: Staying at Meridian Plastic Surgery Center
Following your surgery, you will spend your first night in the comfort and safety of our state-of-the-art Meridian Plastic Surgery Center. Our facility is fully accredited and equipped with private overnight suites, ensuring that you receive the highest level of care during your initial recovery period. Our dedicated nursing staff will be on hand to monitor your recovery and attend to any needs you may have, allowing you to rest and begin your healing process with peace of mind.
Accommodations for the Remainder of Your Stay
After your first night at our surgery center, most patients opt to rent a nearby Airbnb for the remainder of their recovery. We typically recommend that you stay in Indianapolis for about 7-10 days after your surgery, depending on the specific procedure you have had. This allows us to monitor your recovery closely and ensure that you are healing well before you travel back home.
We have compiled a list of comfortable and conveniently located Airbnb options that are popular with our out-of-town patients. These homes offer a tranquil environment where you can relax and recover while still being just a short distance from our center for any necessary follow-up visits. If you prefer, we can also assist you in finding a hotel that suits your needs.
Follow-Up Appointments
Your post-operative care is just as important as the surgery itself. For our out-of-town patients, we offer virtual follow-up appointments to make it easier for you to stay connected with Dr. Sturgill and our team. These virtual consultations allow us to monitor your progress, address any questions or concerns, and provide guidance as you continue your recovery at home.
However, if any issues arise that require in-person attention, we may recommend that you return to Indianapolis for further evaluation and treatment. Your safety and well-being are our top priorities, and we will work with you to ensure that you receive the care you need, whether virtually or in person.
We understand that traveling for surgery can be a significant undertaking, and we’re here to assist you every step of the way. Our patient coordinator is available to help you with travel arrangements, accommodation recommendations, and scheduling to ensure your journey is as smooth as possible. Whether you’re in the early stages of planning or ready to book your surgery, we are here to answer any questions and provide the guidance you need.
If you’re considering traveling to Indianapolis for surgery with Dr. Sturgill, we invite you to contact us to discuss the details and learn more about the process. We look forward to helping you plan your journey to looking and feeling your best.
