First Visit


Your initial appointment will consist of a consultation explaining your diagnosis and treatment options. Occasionally, surgery can be performed the same day as the consultation. However, a complex medical history or treatment plan may require an evaluation and a second appointment to provide treatment on another day.

Please assist us by providing the following information:

  • Your surgical referral slip, and any x-rays or other imaging (if applicable).
  • A list of medications you are presently taking.
  • A copy of the front and back of your medical and dental insurance cards. This will save time and allow us to help you process any claims.
  • IMPORTANT: All patients under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian at all visits.

A preoperative consultation and physical examination is mandatory for patients undergoing IV anesthesia for surgery. Please have nothing to eat or drink eight hours prior to your surgery. You will also need an adult to drive you home.

Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern prior to surgery (i.e., diabetes, high blood pressure, artificial heart valves and joints, rheumatic fever, etc.) or if you are currently taking any medications (i.e., heart medications, aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, etc.).

IMAGING

If your dentist or physician has taken any previous imaging (i.e. x-rays, CT scans, MRI, Ultrasound, PET scan) you may request that they forward them to our office. If there is not enough time, please pick them up and bring them to our office. If additional films are necessary, they can be taken at our facility. Please be aware that the UMOMSA provider may request that you obtain new imaging depending on image quality or new history and physical examination findings.
