Scheduling

The Cumberland Valley surgery Center works closely with your doctor's office to schedule surgery at a time that is most convenient for you. We encourage you to carefully review and complete all of the paperwork and /or instructions provided by your physician.  You will be given your actual arrival time from our front office staff within 3 days of your scheduled surgery date. Please log onto Simple Admit by following the patient registration link on the front page to complete important preoperative information. If you did not recieve a login password or token from your physicians office, please contact the center and we will send one to you via email. It is very important to return any preoperative phone call attempts by the center's staff as there may be missing information or further information needed and  this may affect your surgery.
