Pre-surgery examination by a General Practitioner

The pre-surgery examination serves all patients who come with a request from the doctor. An internal examination before surgery helps prevent medical complications during the procedure. This does not depend on the type of surgery.

The price of the pre-surgery examination depends on the type of surgery the patient will undergo. At our clinic, we focus mainly on:

  • pre-surgery blood tests
  • pre-surgery ECG examination
  • measurement of vital parameters (pressure, pulse, respiratory rate)
  • listening to the heart and lungs
  • skin control
  • urinalysis to check kidney function and identify possible infections
  • measurement of lung volume and airflow to assess lung function
  • and much more...

Pre-surgery examination: what it contains

Our General Practitioner (Prague ATODA Medical) knows that pre-surgery examinations are an important part of the process of preparing a patient for a medical procedure. The aim of these examinations is to determine the patient's current state of health and to minimise the risks associated with surgery and anaesthesia.

Pre-surgery examinations in children and adults vary depending on the specific type of surgery and the patient's health condition. This is determined by a paediatrician (Prague ATODA Medical has a top-notch paediatric department) or a GP. They usually include:

  • medical history
  • physical examination
  • blood tests and chemistry
  • urine tests,
  • ECG and imaging
  • spirometry
  • additional tests, etc.

Pre-surgery examination: price and appointment

If you're wondering when to go for a pre-surgery check-up, it's important to note that the specific check-up varies depending on the type of surgery, the patient's health status and the hospital where the surgery is being performed. The doctor at ATODA Medical will be able to determine which tests are necessary for your specific situation, whether to come in on an empty stomach, and how much the test will cost.

At ATODA Medical, we offer convenient accessibility and flexible surgery hours. Just make an appointment by phone or email. You can make an appointment for an exact time and you don't have to worry about waiting. In addition, the clinic has ample parking options, so your visit with us will be stress- and complication-free from start to finish.

How long is the internal pre-surgery examination valid for

How long before surgery to go for an examination? The validity of pre-surgery examinations may depend on several factors, such as the type of surgery, the patient's current health status and the hospital's internal policy. In general, the validity of pre-surgery examinations is limited and can be several weeks to months. This depends on possible changes in the patient's health status or the evolution of the medical situation.

If a longer period of time elapses between the pre-surgery examinations and the procedure itself, repeat examinations or updating of certain tests may be required. It is important to always consult with the person who is indicating the surgery and the pre-surgery tests (for example, your surgeon) regarding the validity of the pre-surgery tests in your particular case.

After years of extremely bad experience with doctors for children in Prague  - this clinic and our new doctor Ms MUDr. Agnieszka Podstolská is just a paradise. Very professional and kind approach, fast service, good communication in cz or English (!), willingness to help which seems to be hard to find elsewhere. Very clean and pleasant environment compared with places “for free” elsewhere where you find stinky packed little waiting rooms with rude staff, especially old school nurses who hate you for being a foreigner. Thank you all for being there for us every time needed!
