Nurse Zephyr is our full-time nurse at Re. Plastic Surgery, originally from New Zealand. She’s an established nurse with 4 years experience working in general surgery and and rural nursing and absolutely loves being there for our patients from the very first day to your last ever post-op appointment.
You’ll first meet at your consult when she takes your pre-surgery pics and she will be your constant support throughout the process. Zephyr facilitates a pre-surgery appointment 2 weeks before the big day to walk you through what your hospital stay and recovery will look like, assists the surgeons in all your post-op check-ups, and is your point of contact with any recovery concerns or general questions.
After starting at Re. in patient services, Olivia transitioned to be our resident surgical coordinator. She’s in charge of providing quotes at your consult, organising the anaesthetist and other staff at your surgery, booking your hospital stays and ensuring you dot your i’s and cross your t’s so your surgical journey goes as smoothly as possible.
We know surgery can be confusing and a little intimidating, so Liv is here to demystify the process and answer all your surgery questions.
Domi is our lovely patient services coordinator will most likely be the first person you talk to in your Re. journey.
She’s in charge of all our enquiries, answering questions for new and existing patients alike, and is the friendly smile you’ll see every time you check in for an appointment at the clinic.
