A Deep Dive into Your Surgical Readiness
Comprehensive Screening (The Clinical Process)
We don’t just “sign a form.” Our internists perform a detailed medical review to identify potential cardiovascular, respiratory, or metabolic concerns that could affect anesthesia or healing.
Our Evaluation Includes:
Cardiac Risk Assessment: Reviewing heart health and history to ensure safety under anesthesia.
Pulmonary Evaluation: Checking lung function for optimal respiratory recovery.
Laboratory Diagnostics: Comprehensive blood work to check for anemia, infection, or electrolyte imbalances.
Medication Audit: Specific instructions on which medications to stop or continue before your surgery.
Fast, Detailed Reporting to Keep Your Procedure on Schedule
Coordination with Surgeons (The Partnership)
Timing is critical when it comes to surgery. We pride ourselves on the efficiency of our reporting. Once your evaluation is complete, we coordinate directly with your surgeon’s office and the surgical facility to provide the necessary documentation and clearances. We act as your advocate, ensuring your entire medical team is on the same page regarding your health status.
Post-Surgical Support (The Recovery Link)
Our care doesn’t end when the surgery begins. For many patients, the recovery phase is where chronic conditions need the most attention. We offer post-operative follow-ups to manage blood pressure, glucose levels, and overall healing, ensuring that your transition back to daily life is as smooth and safe as possible.
