Preparing for Your Surgery

Before your procedure, you will be asked to preregister with the hospital and participate in preadmissions testing. In many cases, our patients are able to bypass a formal visit to our pretesting office and have all of their pretesting needs taken care of with one simple tele phone call.

During your visit, you will:

• Be assessed by a nurse
• Receive information about your procedure
• Meet with an anesthesiologist
• Complete any necessary tests required by your doctor (blood tests, ultrasound, EKG, etc.)

If you have any questions or concerns about your procedure, our team of experts is available to help you throughout the process.

Our Operating Rooms

Our modern surgical suite features advanced technology with four large operating rooms and one minor procedure room.

After Your Surgery

After your procedure, you will receive postoperative discharge instructions, which help to aid in your recovery.
