Your Surgery - Patient Information & Instructions |

- All operative and invasive procedures at both UCSD Medical Center in Hillcrest and Thornton Hospital in La Jolla are scheduled through Central Scheduling.
- Prior to surgery, patients will be seen in the Pre-Op Evaluation Center for anesthesia screening, lab work, ECG, pre-op education and financial screening.
- Patients whose surgery will require an inpatient stay will also need to contact Admissions & Registration to complete the necessary paperwork required to complete the admitting process.
