Scheduling your Surgery

When you are scheduled for surgery, you will be given a pamphlet for Christus Southern New Mexico. Inside you will find information about our center as well as instructions for filling out your online health history. It is important that we have a good picture of your current health status, including all medications that you take, prior to your procedure. Any necessary lab work or medical clearances will be ordered through your Physician’s office.

A few days prior to your procedure, a nurse will contact you to go over the health information that you provided. During this phone call the nurse will instruct you as to your arrival time on the date of surgery as well as what time you will be required to stop eating and drinking. Remember that for your safety you will be required to have a “responsible party” who can take you home and stay with you for the first day after surgery if you are receiving anesthesia. These arrangements may need to be made in advance.
