Preoperative

  • Stop any aspirin or blood thinning products 1 week prior.  Please check with your primary care physician or cardiologist for exact details on when these can be stopped
  • Do not shave preoperatively
  • Find out what time to be at the hospital on your surgery date
  • Please arrive in Cape Cod the day prior to surgery, and leave 2-3 days after
  • Dr. Kramer likes to see all patients the day before surgery, but if not feasible, or you have been seen prior, this may not be necessary
