Before you visit
Your first visit
Your first surgical visit usually reviews history, examination findings, and any imaging or labs already done. The team explains the proposed procedure, risks and alternatives in plain language, and what same-day discharge would involve if you are a suitable candidate. Bring ID, insurance details, medicines list, and prior reports.
Preparation
Preparation depends on the procedure and anaesthesia plan. You may be asked to fast, pause certain medicines, or arrange a responsible adult to accompany you home. Follow the written instructions given at booking or pre-assessment — do not invent your own fasting or medication changes.
Duration & recovery
Day-surgery pathways aim for admission, procedure, and discharge on the same day when clinically appropriate. Exact timing varies by procedure and recovery checks. After discharge, follow wound care, activity limits, and medicine instructions; contact us if you have unexpected symptoms.

FAQ
Quick answers before you visit
Will I stay overnight?
Many procedures at a one day surgery hospital are planned for same-day discharge when it is safe. Overnight stay decisions are clinical — your team will explain what applies to your case.
Do I need anaesthesia?
Some procedures use local anaesthesia; others need regional or general anaesthesia. Anaesthesiology assesses you as part of the pathway and explains the plan before the day of surgery.
