Important Information for a Comfortable Experience with Us
We want to ensure your experience is as pleasant and stress-free as possible. Once your surgery date is scheduled, you will receive a Pre-Op Admissions phone call with key details to prepare for your procedure.
Pre-Op Admissions Call
To ensure your surgery day goes smoothly, a Registered Nurse from Christus ASC at Olympia Hills Surgery Center will contact you 24–48 business hours before your scheduled procedure. During this call, the nurse will:
- Review your medical history.
- Provide detailed pre-op instructions.
- Answer any questions you may have.
Arrival Time: Your exact arrival time will be determined based on several factors, including the number of cases scheduled, the type of procedure, and the type of anesthesia required. You will receive your final arrival time during this Pre-Op call.
If you have any questions during this process, feel free to contact us at 210.499.6790.
Partnership with Your Surgeon’s Office
Your surgeon’s office will guide you through important preparatory steps, including:
- Providing any required lab orders.
- Giving specific instructions, such as medication adjustments.
Lab Work:
- Must be completed within 30 days of your surgery.
- Results should be faxed to us at least 24 hours before your surgery date.
- If an EKG is required, it will be performed the morning of your procedure.
Post-Operative Care:
- The surgeon’s office will provide details about the procedure, recovery time, and post-op instructions.
- Please schedule your first post-op appointment with your surgeon in advance.
By working closely with your surgeon’s office and our surgical team, we aim to provide you with seamless and compassionate care throughout your surgical journey.
