If you have surgery booked, our office will be in touch with you with specific pre-surgical instructions as well as your time and the location within the hospital to show up for your surgery. Do not consume food or drink 12 hours prior to surgery as that will interfere with your anesthesia, please call our office if you have any questions. Come to the Hospital at the designated time and register at the Eaton Ambulatory Care Unit Reception desk (off the main lobby). To avoid delays, please have your health card ready. You will be given your Hospital ID bracelet and escorted to the Day Surgery Unit. A family member can accompany you. Please visit the Headwaters Health Care Patient Check-In Website for more information about the hospital admission process.
If you miss your appointment date, know that it may take weeks or months to find another available time to access the operating room and you may be billed by the hospital for the unused operating room time.
