Surgery

Our physicians perform surgeries at most of the hospitals and surgery centers in the area. Needing to have surgery is a very anxious time for anyone, whether you have had previous surgeries or not. In order to make the experience a better one for our patients, our physicians provide you with detailed information about when to arrive at the hospital and what to expect after your surgery has been completed. When packing your bags to go to the hospital, remember to pack the following:

• Any specific, individualized instructions/information provided to you by your physician.
• A complete list of all prescribed and non-prescription medications that you are taking.
• Loose, comfortable clothing (including shorts).
• Athletic or walking shoes.
• Any icing device that you have used or feel comfortable with (or anything recommended by your physician).
• Insurance/Workman’s Compensation information.
• Picture I.D.
