Preoperative Optimization at UVA provides comprehensive evaluation and care coordination for patients preparing for surgery and interventional procedures. Through phone, in-person, and telemedicine visits, the multidisciplinary team works to optimize patients’ health before surgery, reduce same-day cancellations, improve outcomes, and shorten recovery times. The program also serves as a key educational resource for anesthesia residents, advancing training in perioperative medicine and evidence-based patient care.
