Complete the forms given to you by the physician’s office and bring them with you on the day of
the procedure.
Arrange for a driver, age 18 or older, to bring you to your appointment, remain in the office during your

You will be asked to sign a consent authorizing your physician to perform the procedure(s).
A nurse will check your vital signs, take a brief medical history, and list medications you take.
You will receive strong medication through intravenous injection (I.V.) to help you relax and minimize
discomfort (conscious sedation).
A nurse will review verbal and written discharge instructions with you and your driver.
A nurse will call to check on how you are feeling within 24 hours after discharge.
