You must have a responsible adult take you home and stay with you overnight. Your surgery will be cancelled otherwise. Why? Anaesthetics and other medications used during your surgery affect your mental and physical function. Since most of our patients do not stay overnight this is a mandatory safety precaution. 

What to bring:

  • Health Card

  • Wear comfortable clothes and flat shoes

  • Crutches, Sling, or Brace as instructed

Do not wear:

  • Jewellery, remove body piercings

  • Scented products of any kind - we are a fragrance free facility

  • Makeup

  • Coloured nailpolish (nailpolish on toes is acceptable)
