Before undergoing a surgical procedure, most surgeons require their patient to complete a pre-operative evaluation exam. Timelines vary but most pre-operative evaluations are done within one week of the surgery to have the most recent medical condition in assessing a patient’s risk for surgery. Patients sometimes find it challenging to secure a pre-op appointment with their primary care physician which is where Exer Urgent Care can make a difference to help avoid a surgery being rescheduled.
To save time in the office, we ask you print and complete a Pre-Op Questionnaire and bring it with you to your visit. Click Here for Questionnaire.
What is involved in a Pre-Op Evaluation?
Your surgeon typically gives you a pre-op evaluation order form that tells our providers what they want our team to review in determining the level of risk for your surgery. We can handle most of the orders in our clinic and/or administer any orders to be processed by outside labs. Here is what you might expect during a pre-op evaluation visit with one of our providers (again, final pre-op orders are specified by surgeon):
- Provider Visit
- Medical History
- Measurement of Vitals
- Physical exam
- In-clinic EKG
- In-clinic X-ray (available at most locations)
- Select urine and blood tests are available in-clinic
- All handling of any blood/urine tests sent to outside labs*
- Provider Evaluation Report (within a few days of visit)
*Specimens sent to outside labs are billed separately to patient who is responsible for any lab payments.
