Medical Clearance

A medical clearance checkup or pre-surgical evaluation is scheduled with a primary care, New York City doctor prior to a planned surgery. During this evaluation, our NYC primary care doctors evaluate your health and any issues that may lead to your surgery and recovery being as safe as possible. It may include diagnostic tests such as urinalysis/EKG/blood work or other evaluation depending on the specifics of your condition.

Studies have shown that a physical exam and evaluation prior to surgery can help and may even shorten recovery times and lead to better outcomes.

If you are preparing for planned surgery under general anesthesia, it’s important to have a preoperative evaluation. The goal of this evaluation is to reduce the risk of surgery and to ensure you recover as quickly as possible.
