Helpful Tips for Preparing for a Procedure
- Review our Procedures FAQ page
- Make preparations to have someone drive you to and from your procedure.
- Clear your schedule for the day of your procedure to allow you time to comfortably relax and recover. This is important as you may not feel well enough to work or engage in regular activities for some hours after your procedure.
- IMPORTANT REMINDER: If you are on insulin or other medications for diabetes and/or pain medications, please CHECK with your REGULAR physician for specific instructions. In almost all cases, you MUST let us know if you take blood thinners or GLP-1 drugs (Such as: Ozempic, Victoza, Trulicity, Mounjaro, Rybelsus), as these must be held before you have your procedure.
