At DESA Consulting, we understand that surgery is more than just the operation itself—it is a journey. From preparation to recovery, every stage impacts your health and wellbeing. That’s why our team of experienced nurse practitioners and surgeons provide comprehensive support across pre-operative weight loss, pre- and post-operative care, orthopaedic surgery, plastic surgery, general and hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) surgery, and surgical assisting.
Pre-Operative Weight Loss
Maintaining a healthy weight before surgery significantly improves outcomes. Pre-op weight loss can:
- Reduce the risk of complications such as infections and delayed healing.
- Improve anaesthetic safety and recovery.
- Protect joints and organs, especially in orthopaedic and abdominal surgery.
At DESA Consulting, we provide tailored weight management programs that combine nutrition planning, medical support, and lifestyle coaching to prepare patients for safer surgery.
Pre-Operative & Post-Operative Care
The way you prepare before surgery and recover afterwards can make all the difference. We offer:
- Pre-op care: management of chronic conditions (diabetes, hypertension, obesity), medication reviews, lifestyle adjustments, and education.
- Post-op care: wound monitoring, pain management, rehabilitation support, infection prevention, and long-term health guidance.
Our holistic approach ensures patients feel supported every step of the way.
Orthopaedic Surgery
Orthopaedic procedures, such as joint replacements and fracture repairs, require careful preparation and recovery. DESA Consulting assists with:
- Prehab programs to strengthen muscles before surgery.
- Weight loss support to reduce strain on joints.
- Post-op rehabilitation, ensuring safe return to mobility and independence.
Plastic Surgery
Plastic and reconstructive surgery can have both cosmetic and medical benefits. We provide:
- Pre-op optimisation to ensure you are in the best health for surgery.
- Lifestyle support—including smoking cessation and nutrition planning—to improve healing.
- Post-op care such as wound management, scar reduction, and recovery monitoring.
General & HPB Surgery
General and hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) surgeries, involving the liver, pancreas, or bile ducts, are complex and require specialised care. At DESA Consulting, we support patients by:
- Optimising nutrition and weight prior to surgery.
- Managing co-morbidities like diabetes, which directly impact recovery.
- Close post-op follow-up, helping patients transition safely back to daily life.
Surgical Assisting
Our expertise extends beyond patient care—DESA Consulting practitioners also provide surgical assisting services. We work alongside surgeons to:
- Improve surgical precision and efficiency.
- Ensure continuity of care from the operating theatre to recovery.
- Provide patients with a seamless experience throughout their surgical journey.
At DESA Consulting, we pride ourselves on delivering holistic, patient-focused surgical care. From pre-op weight loss and medical optimisation to post-op recovery and surgical assisting, our team is committed to ensuring the best possible outcomes for patients undergoing orthopaedic, plastic, and general/HPB surgeries.
Your surgery is just one part of the journey—DESA Consulting is here to support you through it all.
