Patients are nervous no matter how small or big their surgery is. Before and after don’t matter, they are nervous and not at all comfortable. Some of them are just too stressed out as they are away from their family members in an uncomfortable environment. Calm and comfortable surrounding and environment lead to the patient feeling at ease and not as stressed out.
