Am I able to have my pre op, the same day as surgery?

Question

I was wondering what the pre op consists of, and if I was able to have it the same day as my surgery.

Francis Johns, MD · Answer

I think you need more clarification in general. Are you talking about your pre-op consultation before surgery? If that is what you are referring to, I think it would be in your best interest to have that done in advance to discuss everything with your surgeon and make sure you are both on the same page with everything.  If you are referring to the Pre-op testing and Anesthesia consult, then you could do those the same day if you are healthy.

Pre-op consultations are usually done two weeks before surgery in my practice, although we can do the day before in the case of people traveling from out of town. Usually these consultations are a good opportunity to answer any questions or concerns that a patient may have, as well as give all directions for post-op care and prescriptions that will be needed. It would be best to have this done in advance of the surgery.Traci Temmen, MD
