For the safety of everyone, we can only receive you if:

You have an appointment with us
You do NOT have a cold, feel unwell, cough, have a fever, headache, muscle soreness, diarrhea / stomach problems, sore throat, swallowing pain or difficulty breathing
You have NOT had close contact with a person infected with Corona virus

Surgery in connection with COVID-19 vaccination

For major surgical procedures, COVID-19 vaccination can be given no later than 1 week before or no earlier than 1 week after surgery. That also goes for the 4th vaccination.

Surgery after detected COVID-19

If you have had a COVID-19 infection with significant symptoms, we would like you to contact us so that we can plan your course. Significant symptoms may be:

Fever for several days
Affected general condition
Difficulty breathing or prolonged coughing
Has been hospitalized
Following the infection

There is a higher risk of complications after operations in the first weeks after the end of the COVID-19 infection. The health authorities therefore recommend that you postpone your operation under full anesthesia. A minimum of 7 weeks' postponement is recommended after the end of COVID-19 infection with significant symptoms. Assessment of when the course can be completed in that case is an individual and a medical assessment.

If you have had a COVID-19 infection with no or mild symptoms, you can undergo surgery when you are out of isolation and completely well.
