Fly-in ProgramPage:
 2 of 7  If you live outside the San Diego area and are opting to fly-in for surgery with Dr. Schafer, you will have the option to have a Virtual Consultation instead of coming into the office in advance of your surgical procedures. You are saved the cost of having to make two trips to San Diego while taking a necessary step in your medical procedures. Why Do I Need a Virtual Consultation?A consultation is always the first step towards any procedure that you want performed. Consultations give you a chance to tell us what your goals are - what you hope to have accomplished, how you want to feel, and which looks you prefer. You can also ask the questions you may have about various procedures, from surgical techniques to healing times to anything else you may be wondering about. Virtual Consultations also allow us to know you better to ensure the best medical treatment. During the consultation we will learn more about your medical history, current medical condition, and your current physical shape. How Do Virtual Consultations Work?Virtual Consultations are handled over the phone, which means you can talk to one of our Patient Care Consultants in the comforts of your own home without having to drive anywhere or wait in any lobby. We will mail paperwork to you before hand. You simply fill out all forms and attach a few photos of the area you are having treated and then mail them back to us. We supply step-by-step instructions. Once we receive your files we can set up the Consultation. Over the phone we will ask you any outstanding questions we may have and you can do the same. How Can You Prepare for a Virtual Consultation?When it comes time to fill out the forms you should have your medical history handy to help you answer questions. For taking photographs, you can relax and take the photos at your own home - they do not require a professional photographer or special lighting. We just need to be able to clearly see your face or body - remember we want to know exactly how we can help you so the more clearly we can see your body, the better.
