Preparing for Your Visit

Prior to your surgery, a nurse will call you to go over your allergies, medications, history, and risk factors. One business day before your surgery, we will call again to let you know your arrival time for your surgery.

FAQs

What is my arrival time?

We will call you before the surgery to let you know.

Can I bring my phone / electronics?

Yes, please do!

Can I bring a friend or family member with me?

Yes! Whatever makes you comfortable. They’re welcome to enjoy our cozy waiting room while they wait for you to get out of surgery.

Does an IV hurt?

A little, but don’t worry: We’re seasoned professionals when it comes to getting you taken care of.

Can I eat before my surgery?

Almost always the answer is no, but a nurse will call you the day before your surgery to confirm, as well as go over any instructions.

After Your Procedure

Everyone is different, but in general, plan to stay at least 30 minutes in recovery. Sometimes, it may even take an hour or more. 

If you’re having anesthesia, make sure you have someone to bring you home.
