Dear Patient!

Below are the most frequently asked questions. We hope we can help you.

Before surgery

Preoperatív laborok, szövettan miért nincs a műtéti csomagban?

This gives our patients the opportunity to have the necessary pre-operative tests carried out either with the help of their GP or in a healthcare facility near their home. An exception to this is the anaesthesia consultation, which is always carried out with the help of Wábrer Medical Center anaesthesiologists.
The cost of tissue sampling may vary depending on the type and nature of the operation and, as a consequence, the cost of sampling is not included in the surgical package for every evening.
