Day of Surgery

Wear loose, comfortable clothing that is big enough to accommodate a large bandage after surgery. Wear comfortable shoes such as slip-on or tennis shoes, no high heels.

You will need to change into a surgical gown. Our staff will provide a private area to change clothes and prepare for surgery.

Please remove jewelry (including body piercing), makeup or cologne. Leave all valuables at home.

Bring your driver’s license and all insurance cards with you. If your insurance company requires a co-pay, please bring some form of a payment.

Wearing contact lenses is NOT advised so wear your glasses to the center. We provide containers for removable dentures and bridgework.

If your child is having surgery, feel free to bring a favorite stuffed animal or security object for added comfort.

Outside the surgery center entrance is a drop-off/pick-up area for the patient’s convenience. This will allow easy access to the reception area.
