Your vascular surgeon wants to make sure you are ready for surgery. To do

this, you will visit one of our pre-operative clinics. The preoperative clinic helps

you prepare for your surgery before the actual day of the surgery.

How do I prepare for my appointment?

Call (734) 615-0872 to create a patient portal account. This is important for

your care and through this online (web, mobile device) platform you can

receive information about your appointment, test results and communicate

with your care team. There may also be health questionnaires for you to

complete prior to your visit.

On the day of your visit, be sure to take all your regular scheduled

medications and have a good breakfast unless you were told not to eat

before a test. We do suggest you bring a snack, especially if you are diabetic

or if you have been instructed to not eat for testing.

What should I expect at my initial visit?

If you are being seen at the main hospital, parking can be a challenge so please

plan for extra time to find parking. After you park please follow the included

map to locate your clinic location.

Plan to be in the clinic for 2 to 6 hours. A typical visit will include:

pre-appointment testing- blood draw, ultrasound studies or ECG (a device

used to record the electrical activity of the heart),

the appointment with your provider

post- appointment testing (if needed).

You may need to complete pre-appointment testing before you come for your

visit. This gives your provider the opportunity to discuss results with you

during your visit. If this is needed, we will let you know and assist you in

finding a testing option close to your home.

Depending on the nature of your visit, there are times when you will meet with

trainees and/or advanced practice providers before meeting your surgeon.

After meeting with you, they will review your case with the vascular surgeon.

How do I get my medical test results?

If you have additional testing performed, you should expect to receive the test

-9-CVC #1255 09/2019

results via the patient portal. Your surgeon’s office may contact you to review

results of testing if the surgeon feels it is necessary. If you would like to speak

to your care team you can call (888) 287-1082 to schedule time to review your

results and discuss your future care with us.

What kind of education will I receive?

During your appointment you will receive a blue and gold education folder

which includes information about your vascular disease and our contact

information. Additionally, when you check out the staff will print an after visit

summary which may have additional information.

If you are having surgery, you may visit a preoperative clinic ((locations at

Chelsea, Domino’s Farms, Northville and Taubman Center) where a provider

will give you specific written instructions for your surgery.
