Transportation Options

Patients can travel immediately following surgery if they choose. If a patient chooses to use an oral sedative during surgery they must have a driver with them to take them home.  In general, we do not recommend traveling long distances the day of surgery if you elect to receive oral or IV sedation.

Many patients choose to bring their partners with them for support, but it is not required.

If the patient has chosen to use an oral sedative before surgery they should not drive themselves. Otherwise patients can drive as soon as they would like.
