Patient Escorts / Drivers
Please be prepared to remain in our office for all procedures in which:
- The patient is receiving general anesthesia or sedation
- The patient is under the age of 18 (must be a parent or legal guardian)
- You are a POA
As an escort you should anticipate:
- checking into the office with the patient
- remaining in the office for the duration of the appointment
- providing court documention if you are a POA or legal guardian
- reviewing post-operative instructions
- driving the patient home and
- assisting them for the remainder of the day
We make it a priority to stay on schedule and minimize your wait time. Due to the fact that Spokane Oral Surgery provides surgical services, various circumstances may lengthen the time allocated for a procedure. Emergency cases can also arise and cause delays. We appreciate your understanding and patience.
