Important notice for all pre-operative patients
Starting on October 23, Ontario Health has put in place guidelines that mandate all pre-operative patients to get a COVID-19 test five days before their scheduled surgery.
The new regulations come into effect on October 23. This means that patients with a surgery scheduled on October 23, will be required to have a swab on October 19.
The guidelines indicate that you must have a negative COVID-19 test result in order to continue with your surgical procedure. If your test result returns positive your surgery will be rescheduled.
Please read the step-by-step guide with information on how to book your COVID-19 test before your scheduled surgery.
However, if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to: 905-472-7627 or contact your surgeon’s office.
