Useful information Surgery is scheduled based on urgency. Elective cases are scheduled as soon as possible; however, there are no guarantees that surgery will be scheduled the day following the initial appointment. Priority is given to critical patients, fracture cases, oncology patients, and out-of-town clients. Appointments may take two to four hours, especially if radiographs are needed.
