Patient Process
Our goal is to make your surgery experience as easy and pleasant for you as possible.
Check with your insurance company to see if they require a referral, and make arrangements to obtain one.
Then simply call the office and set up an appointment at the time you prefer. Our pre-registration representative will call you several days before your first visit to make check-in faster and easier.
On the day of your appointment, please bring any x-rays, tests or medical reports related to your treatment. Also bring a list of prescription and non-prescription medications you currently take, and the phone number of your pharmacy. Bring your insurance card, and a means of payment if you have a co-pay.
Allow at least an hour for your initial visit. There is convenient parking on-site at both our Edina and Burnsville offices.
If surgery is recommended, we will work with you to schedule it as quickly as is appropriate to the urgency of your diagnosis. The hospital may also call you a day or two before surgery to finalize registration (we are affiliated with Fairview Southdale and Fairview Ridges hospitals). Bring any disability or insurance forms that you need completed to our office and we will assist you with completing them.
After surgery, please call us with any questions you have about your recovery. You may be asked to return for a post operative visit. Many patients complete care at this point, but others require at least one more follow-up visit.
