Physicians Hospital offers outpatient surgery
in all categories. It is requested that
patients register for surgery a couple of
days prior to the day of surgery to ensure
that all their preop paperwork and assessment
is completed, and instructions are given
to the patient prior to surgery.
The preop area at Physicians Hospital consists
of all private rooms that are large and
ensure privacy and confidentiality, they
are equipped with a couple of guest chairs
for 1-2 family members to stay with the
patient until time for surgery.
A play room is available for children and
their parents to stay prior to surgery,
to decrease anxiety.
After surgery, the patient will go to the
Recovery Room for approximately one hour
before being discharged to home.
The family can stay in the surgery waiting
area and will go to a private consultation
room to meet with the surgeon after the
surgery is completed.
The patient will be discharged with instructions
to follow and date to see their doctor post
surgery. They will be taken by wheelchair
to the front entrance where their transportation
will be instructed to meet them to take
them home.
