Calvary Health Care

At Calvary Riverina Hospital, we provide specialised acute level surgery, all supported by our critical care unit.

Across both sites, our nursing staff have the experience and understanding to ensure the best possible outcome for each patient. Highly skilled visiting specialists are an integral part of our professional team dedicated to providing safe, high quality care.

Planned surgery usually follows consultation and treatment by your GP and specialist. From either of these you will be referred to an appropriate surgeon.

Your surgeon will discuss surgical and other options with you, and if you agree to have a surgical procedure the surgeon will forward the appropriate documentation to your surgical admissions team.

The urgency of your surgery, and the possible wait before your surgery is scheduled, is determined by your surgeon and advised to Calvary in the surgeon’s request for admission documents. If you have any concerns about the possible impact on your health and wellbeing caused by a possible delay, please raise those concerns with your surgeon.

Unplanned surgery is performed on people who are admitted via the Emergency Department and who require immediate surgery to address their health emergency.
