Information for your stay at AZ Jan Palfijn Gent
Room choice
Bij planning van de operatie datum dient u de kamerkeuze door te geven. U kunt kiezen voor een éénpersoonskamer of een kamer met twee personen.
The choice of room has no influence on the quality of care, only on your personal comfort.
Statutory fee supplements will be charged for a single room.
If you wish to change your room choice after planning, you can contact the bed planning department of AZ Jan Palfijn Gent directly at 09 224 71 05.
Preoperative Preparation
Depending on the procedure and your medical condition, preliminary examinations are necessary (blood test, ECG, lung X-ray, etc.).
Your GP is the most appropriate person to carry out these examinations. Make an appointment well in advance.
You will be asked to complete a medical questionnaire before each procedure.
