Preparing for surgery can be overwhelming. There are many things to consider, from the procedure itself to the recovery process. At Nao Medical, our urgent care specialists understand the importance of feeling confident and prepared for your upcoming surgery. That’s why we’ve created a pre-surgery checklist to help you navigate the process.
1. Schedule a Pre-Op Clearance Appointment
Before your surgery, you’ll need to schedule a pre-op clearance appointment with a medical professional. This appointment will ensure that you’re healthy enough to undergo the procedure and that there are no underlying health issues that could complicate your surgery. At Nao Medical, we offer same-day appointments and minimal wait times, so you can get the clearance you need quickly and efficiently.
2. Follow Your Doctor’s Instructions
Your doctor will provide you with specific instructions to follow before your surgery. These may include dietary restrictions, medication changes, and other preparations. It’s important to follow these instructions carefully to ensure the best possible outcome for your surgery.
3. Make Arrangements for After Your Surgery
After your surgery, you’ll need time to rest and recover. Make arrangements for someone to drive you home from the hospital and to help you with daily tasks while you recover. It’s also important to follow your doctor’s instructions for post-surgery care to ensure a smooth recovery.
4. Ask Questions
If you have any questions or concerns about your surgery, don’t hesitate to ask your doctor or medical professional. They can provide you with the information you need to feel confident and prepared for your procedure.
