How should I prepare for my procedure?

  • Eat a regular breakfast or lunch before coming to our office.
  • You do not need to have anyone come with you to the procedure.
  • If you take any blood thinner, including Aspirin, clopidogrel (Plavix), ticlopidine (Ticlid), warfarin (Coumadin), Dabigatran (Pradaxa), or Rivaroxaban (Xarelto), please let us know as soon as possible BEFORE the procedure so we can discuss what needs to be done.
  • Take all your regular medications on the day of the procedure.
