Compared with the data collected previously for general, gynecological and urological procedures, cancellation rates increased from 8.1% to 11.8%.
However, there are a few valid reasons to cancel the day before or the morning of the procedure.

If you're sick or injured, your surgeon wants you to cancel for your health and the health of the surgical staff.
