Pre-Operative Clearance Physicals Clinic in Shoreline, WA

At Family Health Care, we understand that preparing for surgery can be stressful. That’s why we offer comprehensive pre-operative clearance physicals to help ensure your procedure goes as smoothly as possible. Our experienced providers conduct thorough medical evaluations before you undergo surgery, focusing on your overall health and any specific conditions that could affect your surgical outcome.

During your pre-operative visit at Family Health Care, our team will:

• Review your complete medical history
• Perform a focused physical examination
• Order and interpret any necessary laboratory tests, electrocardiograms (EKGs), or additional studies

Our goal is to identify and address any medical issues—such as uncontrolled high blood pressure, diabetes, or heart conditions—that could increase your surgical risk. By optimizing your health before surgery, we help reduce the chance of complications during and after your procedure.
 
Once your assessment is complete, we communicate our findings directly with your surgical and anesthesia teams, ensuring everyone involved has the information needed to provide you with the safest care possible.

At Family Health Care, your health and safety are our top priorities, especially when preparing for surgery. A pre-operative clearance physical exam ensures you’re healthy enough for surgery and helps identify any risks that could affect your recovery.

During the exam, your provider will review your medical history, including chronic conditions, previous surgeries, allergies, and medications. We’ll also discuss lifestyle habits like smoking and alcohol use, which can influence surgical outcomes and recovery.

Next, we perform a physical exam, checking your vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, temperature, and respiratory rate), as well as assessing your heart, lungs, abdomen, and overall health. Depending on your age, health, and surgery type, additional tests may be recommended, such as blood work, urine tests, EKG, or imaging studies.

We provide personalized guidance and clear instructions for surgery preparation, including advice on fasting and adjusting medications. If any issues arise, we work closely with your surgical team to address them, ensuring your safety.

We recommend scheduling your pre-operative evaluation 2 to 4 weeks before your surgery to allow ample time for a thorough health assessment, review of your medical history, and any necessary lab work or diagnostic tests. During your visit, we’ll address any health concerns that could affect your surgery and help manage modifiable risk factors.

If your surgeon or anesthesiologist requires specific tests or guidelines, our providers will work closely with your surgical team to meet those requirements. Should any issues arise during the evaluation, early scheduling allows us to address them efficiently and share results with your surgeon.

Patients with complex medical conditions may benefit from an earlier evaluation. At Family Health Care, we provide comprehensive support to ensure you are fully prepared for a safe surgery.

A pre-operative clearance physical is a comprehensive evaluation conducted by our healthcare providers before your surgery. This assessment reviews your overall health, identifies any risks, and optimizes existing medical conditions that could affect your surgery or anesthesia.

The need for a pre-operative clearance depends on the type of surgery, your health, and your surgeon’s requirements. For minor procedures in healthy individuals, a basic exam and medical history review may suffice. However, for those with underlying health issues or major surgery, a detailed evaluation including lab tests and specialist consultations is often recommended.
