If an epidural is planned, how much preparation does the procedure entail, and does the doctor remain with me afterwards to check the result?

It really depends if you are having anesthesia or not. Prep time takes little longer if you are anesthesia. 30 to 60 minutes. Without take 10 minutes I love this center and my doctor. Nurses are wonderful. Very caring and understanding. The nurses do check on you and doctor does stop by. The results can take up week for injection sometimes. The doctor does have follow visit to see how you feel after injection. Good luck

Most likely nurse will monitor you afterwards, not sure about prep time .
