Posted on Thu, 23 Jun 2016
Question: I sent you an email regarding the surgeon putting a stent instead of removing my Kidney stone. What is the average stay in the hospital after this procedure is done assuming there are no complications? I anxiously await your reply to this and my earlier inquiry sent to you this A.M.

THANK YOU

Brief Answer:
In my opinion about 2-5 days, not more

Detailed Answer:
Hello ma'am and welcome.

Thank you for writing to us.

I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help. It takes about 2-5 days maximum to help reach a level sufficient enough to allow discharge from the hospital. In some cases we have even discharged patients by the 2nd day, but in some cases we have kept them for longer.

But in my opinion about 2-5 days post-op, not more. I hope you find my response helpful, please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I am always here to help.

Best wishes.
