Surgical clearances at JUVENIS
Every patient who has to undergo surgery requires a so-called surgical clearance. Surgical clearances at JUVENIS in Vienna are requested by the surgeon during the preliminary consultation and are gladly organized for you at JUVENIS. This ensures that there are no health-related contraindications for the planned procedure.

Surgical clearance at JUVENIS
The surgical clearance is issued by our female physician for General medicine, Dr. Daniela Themmer. Appointments are always possible on Tuesdays between 9:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m.
The necessary blood draw always takes place on Monday morning at JUVENIS. For this, we ask you to come fasting. This means that you should not eat anything from the end of your evening meal the previous day until your blood draw appointment. However, you should drink enough water and take your medication as usual.
If you have a blood type card, we ask you to show it to our staff at the front desk. A copy of your card will then be attached to the surgical clearance. This way, you avoid unnecessary laboratory costs.
