After Surgery

You will be discharged to your car by wheelchair. If anesthesia has been administered, you must have a responsible adult present to drive you home and to care for you following surgery.

Your physician will provide post-operative instructions regarding diet, rest, exercise and medications. You will be provided with a written summary of these discharge instructions.

A nurse from the center will attempt to call you the day after your surgery to check on your progress and discuss any questions you may have. If you have any unexpected problems, please call your doctor. If he/she does not respond, please go to the nearest emergency room.

Patient Testimonial

My experience was outstanding. The team at Pittsburgh Orthopaedic Surgical Suites was outstanding from the time I arrived to the time I left post surgery. The Financial Manager, Ashley W. was tremendous in reviewing and articulating the claims process removing any concerns and allowing me to focus on recovery. The nursing team was kind, compassionate, and very experienced making a stressful situation calm. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone needing an orthopaedic surgery and if I had to do this again, this would be the center I’d choose.
