Day of Surgery

Wear loose, comfortable clothing that is big enough to accommodate a large bandage after surgery. Wear comfortable shoes such as slip-on, no high heels.

You will need to change into a surgical gown.

Do not wear any jewelry (including body piercing), makeup or cologne. Do not bring any valuables with you.

Bring your driver’s license and all insurance cards with you. If your insurance company requires a co-pay, please bring some form of payment.

Wearing contact lenses is NOT advised. We provide containers for removable dentures and bridgework.

If your child is having surgery, feel free to bring a favorite stuffed animal or security blanket for added assurance.

Outside the surgery center entrance is a drop-off/pick-up area for the patient’s convenience. This will allow easy access to the reception area. Our staff will provide a private area to change clothes and prepare for surgery.

Patient Testimonial

Three weeks ago I had my hip replaced at this surgery center’s incredible team. The medical care was outstanding, but what I’ll remember most is how every person treated me.

From the moment I walked through the front door until I went home, I felt genuinely cared for. Everyone was skilled, professional, and remarkably kind. Surgery is naturally stressful, yet the warmth and compassion of the entire staff made me feel calm, safe, and supported every step of the way.

What impressed me most was that the kindness never felt scripted or performed. It simply seemed to be the way people treat one another there. While I was waiting, I noticed every other person and family receiving the same warmth and attention. It wasn’t something reserved for me—it was simply who they are.

I came alone that day, without family by my side, but I never felt alone. Every interaction reminded me that I mattered.

I expected excellent medical care, and I certainly received it. What I didn’t expect was to leave feeling so grateful for the compassion and humanity I experienced. My new hip has already changed my life, but I’ll never forget the people who made one of the most stressful days of my life feel so reassuring.

Thank you to Dr. Andreini, Joe, and every member of the team. You are doing something very special.
