Well i had an upper endoscopy done last week and i was put under, but they let me wear my own clothes…
now that was at a pediatric surgery center so is that why? or was it because it didnt really matter?
A lady that was giving us info about the surgery said to just wear something comfy. Does that mean that i wont have to change??
i really dont want to wear a gown lol
thanks
this is going to be at a Baylor hospital
thanks

Would I Have To Wear A Hospital Gown During A Tonsillectomy?

Usually an endoscopy room isn’t “sterile” so that is probably why you were able to wear your own clothes. However, you will probably be put in an OR for a tonsillectomy which is in a sterile area. Therefore, you’ll most likely have to wear a hospital gown. This is because of the germs that can be carried in on your clothes worn from home.
