Medical Clearance

Your surgery starts with a safe evaluation.

Before any cosmetic surgery, a pre-operative medical clearance confirms you are in the best possible condition for your procedure and anesthesia. Every evaluation at Golden is thorough, unhurried, and tailored to you.

An evaluation built around you

No two patients are alike. We tailor each evaluation to the factors that truly affect the safety of your surgery.

Type & complexity of surgery

We consider the planned procedure and the type of anesthesia to set the right depth of evaluation.

Your age & medical history

We review your age and your medical and surgical history to identify any relevant risk factors.

Your current medications

We review what you take today and, if needed, coordinate adjustments before surgery for added safety.

Your surgeon's requirements

We follow the specific requirements set by your surgeon or the surgical facility where you'll be treated.

How the process works

We've designed every step so you reach your surgery well prepared and at ease.

Schedule ahead

Book your evaluation early and bring your surgeon's orders, your medication list, and any recent results you have.

Medical evaluation

We complete your history, physical exam, medication review, vital signs, and an assessment of your risks.

If your case calls for it, we order or review labs, an EKG, a chest X-ray, or other tests and consultations.

Medical clearance

We issue your clearance once the full evaluation is complete, with individualized recommendations for your surgery.

Questions, answered

How far in advance should I get my pre-op evaluation?
We recommend scheduling well ahead of your surgery, since some cases need additional tests, medication adjustments, or a specialist consultation before clearance can be issued. Follow the timing your surgeon requires as well.
What should I bring to my appointment?
Please bring your surgeon's orders, a list of the medications you currently take, any recent results you have, a valid ID, and your insurance card if applicable. This helps us complete your evaluation faster.
Is the clearance issued the same day?
Clearance is issued after your full evaluation is completed and reviewed. In many cases it's the same day; if additional tests or a specialist consultation are needed, it's issued once everything is complete.
What tests might be ordered?
Depending on your case, we may order or review lab work, an electrocardiogram (EKG), a chest X-ray, or other tests and specialist consultations needed for your procedure.
Are appointments available in Spanish?
Yes. Our team is fully bilingual. You're welcome to communicate in English or Spanish — whichever makes you most comfortable during your visit.
Is there parking available?
Yes — the clinic has its own free on-site parking, so you'll always have a convenient place to park when you visit for your evaluation.
