Frequently Asked Questions
Surgery can be a scary topic for many and even more so as a parent. Here are some of the frequently asked questions.
How do I prepare my child for surgery?
Honesty and play are key. We suggest using age-appropriate books or ‘playing doctor’ with a teddy bear. Our team will provide a specific ‘Prep Guide’ to help you explain the process to your little one.
Can I stay with my child in hospital?
Absolutely. We encourage parents to be present during the induction of anesthesia and to be there the moment your child wakes up. Your presence is their best medicine.
What happens if I have a question once we go home?
You are never alone. We provide clear post-operative instructions and a direct line of contact for any concerns during the recovery period.

Testimonials
“I don’t think I could ever fully express how grateful I am for everything Dr D’hondt has done for our son. After an incredibly difficult year health-wise, she was there for him (and me) during one of his lowest moments. She is not only exceptional in her work, but she also brings a depth of empathy that leaves a lasting impact. Her blend of kindness and professionalism is truly unmatched.”

Parent
“Dr D’hondt is the best and thank you so much for taking care of my baby girl when she got burned. She’s fully recovered now, and there’s not even a scar! You’re amazing at what you do, and I’m so grateful for your help. You’re like an angel sent from heaven.”

I will forever be grateful to and for Dr D’hondt for her level of compassion, dedication and thoughtfulness.“
