Instructions for Common Procedures
One of our physicians determines when a procedure is appropriate. If the physician makes the determination while you are here for an outpatient clinic visit, you are given an appointment date and preparation instructions before you leave the clinic.
If you schedule the procedure through our administrative office, one of our ambulatory representatives calls you to set up the appointment. We then give you preparation instructions through the mail, if time permits, or over the telephone if necessary. In either case, we call you 48 hours prior to the procedure with an arrival time.
