Patient Reviews

Dr. Patuwo is amazing. She took care of me during my pregnancy & delivered my daughter. I was sad whenever I wasn’t going to go back once a month anymore. Miss her and the wonderful office staff. Can’t wait to get pregnant again!

Dr. Phillips and her staff are the best! She took care of me and my first little one, and is now about to bring my second little girl into the world. I wouldn’t trust anyone else to take such good care of us!

Was highly impressed. I am a coward about going to the doctor. The staff and Doctor made a very uncomfortable situation as easy and relaxing as one can. Questions were handled with kindness and care.

Dr. Patuwo was awesome! I’m so glad I came here. Going to college in Fort Worth and needing to find a reliable OBGYN that I can trust knows what she is talking about back home has been so much more difficult than I thought! But she’s just all around fantastic so I highly recommend.

Sugar land women’s care is hands down the best! Dr Chantel Nguyen was the sweetest person. I couldn’t have asked for a better doctor at such a difficult time.

I love Dr. Phillips! We went to her during a very hard time and she was wonderful, she took the time to talk to my husband and I and explained our options for the present time & in the future. I have found my new Dr.!

Dr. Phillips and her nurse are amazing. Dr. Phillips delivered both of my babies, I would recommend her to anyone in that area.

Dr. Tran has been my Gynecologist for 13 years, she is by far the BEST physician/surgeon I have met and this is not an exaggeration. Soft spoken but firm, extremely knowledgeable, all questions are answered in detail, and is very personable. Anyone seeking a great OB/GYN, she is your best choice! 🙂

Preparing for Surgery

Preparing for Surgery

Once you and your surgeon decide that surgery will help you, you’ll need to learn what preparing mentally and physically for surgery entails. Understanding the process and your role in it will help you recover more quickly and have fewer problems.

Working with Your Doctor

Before surgery, your surgeon will give you a complete physical examination to make sure you don’t have any conditions that could interfere with the surgery or its outcome. Routine tests, such as blood tests and X-rays, are usually performed a week before the surgery.

Discuss any medications you are taking with your doctor and your family physician to see which ones you should stop taking before surgery.

Discuss with your doctor options for preparing for potential blood replacement, including donating your own blood, medical interventions, and other treatments, prior to surgery.

If you are overweight, losing weight is advisable. However, you should not diet during the month before your surgery.

If you are taking aspirin or anti-inflammatory medications, you will need to stop taking them one week before surgery to minimize bleeding.

If you smoke, you should stop or cut down to reduce your surgery risks and improve your recovery.

Have any tooth, gum, bladder or bowel problems treated before surgery to reduce the risk of infection later.

Eat a well-balanced diet, supplemented by a daily multivitamin with iron.

Report any infections to your doctor. Surgery cannot be performed until all infections have cleared up.

Home Planning

Arrange for someone to help out with everyday tasks like cooking, shopping and laundry.

Put items that you use often within easy reach before surgery so you won’t have to reach and bend as often.

Remove all loose carpets and tape down electrical cords to avoid falls.

Make sure you have a stable chair with a firm seat cushion, a firm back and two arms.

Preparing for Procedure

If you are having Day Surgery, remember the following:

Have someone available to take you home, you will not be able to drive for at least 24 hours.

Do not drink or eat anything in the car on the trip home.

The combination of anesthesia, food, and car motion can quite often cause nausea or vomiting. After arriving home, wait until you are hungry before trying to eat. Begin with a light meal and try to avoid greasy food for the first 24 hours.

Take your pain medicine as directed. Begin the pain medicine as you start getting uncomfortable, but before you are in severe pain. If you wait to take your pain medication until the pain is severe, you will have more difficulty controlling the pain.
