Pre-admission (aka Pre-assessment) Clinic

The Pre Admission clinic is an information session that will prepare you for your upcoming surgery. It is an hour or sometimes longer patient information session with a nurse to inform you about your upcoming surgery, review your medications and help you plan for your after surgery care.

How do I prepare for my appointment

You will receive in the mail a patient health form that you must complete. Please bring it and all medications you are taking including any over the counter medications to your clinic appointment. You may bring any family member, or friend with you to your appointment.

What questions should I ask?

You may ask any questions you may have about your up coming  surgery.

What will happen at my appointment?

You will receive general information about the surgery, perhaps view a video, and have some tests done such as blood work and other pre operative testing.
You will also receive printed information about your up coming surgery.

What happens after my first visit?

You may or may not have your date for surgery. If you do not have your date for surgery you will receive notification when your surgery has been scheduled.
