surgeon resources

At the Dental Surgical Center of Medina, we strive to provide the best patient care by assisting in making the patient’s surgeries safe and efficient. This includes, but is not limited to, starting surgeries on time, short room turnover time, and safely discharging patients upon full recovery.

To accomplish the above, we are asking surgeons to follow the following protocols:
1. Please call our office at (330) 952-1737, as soon as you have a patient for surgery, and provide the patient information with the referral form.
2. Provide our staff with patient information and give estimated time required for surgery.
3. Patients are welcome to contact us through our office phone number on our website: www.medinasurgical.com.
4. We will contact patients to give instructions and answer any questions patients may have.
5. A Physical is required within 30 days of surgery; this follows the accreditation standard. Please use the provided H&P form, which is downloadable under the Patient Resource: “Forms” link.
6. Two days before the surgery date, our office will confirm the appointment and review pre-operative instructions with the patient.
7. Surgeons, please arrive with an assistant. We provide all equipment and supplies. Our circulator nurses are knowledgeable but not trained dental assistants, and you will feel more comfortable working with your own assistant.
8. We asked that the patient and surgeon arrive at least 30 minutes before the scheduled appointment time.
