Preparing for Surgery
A nurse from Mile High SurgiCenter will contact you prior to your surgery to review your health history, medications and pre-operative instructions.
Please notify your surgeon if there is a change in your physical condition such as cold, fever or respiratory problems.
Do not eat or drink anything after midnight the night before your operation, including no hard candy or cigarettes. If your child is the patient, please be careful to monitor this. Also, please follow any other special instructions your surgeon may have given you. Failure to follow these instructions may result in cancellation of your surgery.
Please be sure to tell your surgeon if you are on any type of blood thinners or aspirin. Please do not take any medications after midnight unless instructed by your surgeon or the nurse at our center.
It is extremely important to arrange for a responsible adult to accompany you to the Mile High SurgiCenter and remain with you the first 24 hours after surgery.
Your staff are amazing. This is our second surgery there in 9 weeks. The nurses are great. Becca and Darcy went out of their way to take great care of my husband.”
