Whether you’re undergoing orthopedic surgery, gallbladder removal, hernia repair, cataract surgery, or any other elective procedure, our clinic offers fast, thorough pre-op clearance at a fraction of the time and cost of a traditional doctor’s office or hospital-based evaluation.
A complete pre-operative exam typically includes a detailed medical history review, physical examination, vital signs assessment (blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, temperature), electrocardiogram (EKG/ECG) to evaluate heart rhythm and detect any underlying cardiac issues, blood work including complete blood count (CBC), metabolic panel, and coagulation studies, and urinalysis. Depending on your age, medical history, and the type of surgery you’re scheduled for, additional tests such as chest X-ray or pulmonary function testing may also be required. Our medical team coordinates directly with your surgeon’s office to ensure all required documentation is completed and submitted before your procedure date.
Our pre-operative exams are performed by experienced medical providers who understand the specific clearance requirements of different surgical procedures. We assess for potential risk factors including uncontrolled hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, lung conditions, bleeding disorders, and medication interactions that could complicate anesthesia or surgery. If any concerns are identified, we provide appropriate referrals or recommend further evaluation before clearance is granted.
