What do I do when I arrive at the hospital?

You will be instructed to go to admissions for check-in and then the hospital staff will direct you to the appropriate area for the preoperative assessment by the hospital nurses. More tests may be required if something unusual was found from the previous days test. The surgeon’s anesthesiologist will usually meet with you in the preoperative area to answer any other questions. The anesthesiologist will go over the types of anesthesia (s)he is going to use and the expected outcome.
