Is having a patient sign an arbitration clause prior to surgery standard?

I’m hoping it is & that I’m not unnecessarily worried. It was just odd to see it as it was the first page of the stack of papers I was asked to fill out in a waiting room at a potential surgeon’s office (even before the page with my name, address, etc.) I’ve never sued anyone & it felt a bit on the hostile side for this to be the first thing that was given to me.
