Preoperative Anesthesia Clinic Fontaine

The UVA Health Preoperative Anesthesia Clinic Fontaine schedules appointments with patients who need to be evaluated by a provider. The appointment may be in person or via telemedicine, depending on your surgery or procedure.

Our providers review your surgical and medical history. They also review your medications and test results. They work closely with other specialty services to coordinate any additional evaluations or tests that might be indicated.

We aim to prevent last-minute minute delays or cancellations.

Our team of experts from different areas of anesthesia works together to make sure you’re in the best possible health before your procedure. We check for any health issues that could:

• Put your safety at risk
• Make your medication less effective

We also aim to prevent last-minute surgery cancellations and reduce complications during and after surgery.

Our team will review your medical history and test results and help you understand your anesthesia plan. We may evaluate you over the phone, in person, or through telemedicine and work closely with other specialists, like those in pain medicine, cardiology, and pulmonology, to coordinate your care.
