Coming to New York for surgery?

Let’s make the arrangements around it feel more manageable.

We help coordinate your accommodation, discharge companion and practical support while you are here, around the instructions from your surgical team.

Accommodation is arranged at independently operated hotels. PSS provides non-medical support and does not perform surgery or operate a medical recovery facility.

The arrangements around your procedure

Your surgeon

Sets medical instructions and travel clearance.

Your hotel

Provides your confirmed accommodation.

Your PSS coordinator

Organizes your agreed support and logistics.

Consultation

A conversation before you travel

You may already have a procedure date, or you may still be working through the details. Tell us what you know so far. We can help you organize the practical questions: where to stay, who will meet you at discharge, and what support you would like during your visit.

For a dedicated planning session, book our recovery planning consultation. We will talk through your arrangements and summarize the next steps. Your surgeon remains the person to ask about your procedure, medical instructions and recovery timeline.

Planning

Before you arrive

Start with your surgical team’s instructions. Once you have their dates and requirements, we can help put the stay around them in order.

  1. Confirm the procedure location, arrival time and discharge escort requirements with your clinic.
  2. Ask your surgical team how long to stay locally, which follow-up visits are needed and when you may travel home.
  3. Tell us whether you need accommodation, a discharge companion, scheduled support or transportation coordination.
  4. Share the room features that matter to you, such as a separate bedroom, kitchen facilities or access needs.
  5. Review your written quote, provider details and change or cancellation terms before confirming arrangements.

Your timeline

How long should I stay in New York?

Your surgical team will advise how long you need to remain nearby and when you can travel home. That may be different from the number of hours you book with a companion. We help organize your hotel dates and support schedule around their guidance.

Before booking your return trip, ask about follow-up appointments and any restrictions on flying or other travel. If your dates change, let us know so we can review the arrangements with you. Extensions depend on accommodation and staffing availability and may change the price.

A useful distinction

Your local stay is the time your surgeon asks you to remain nearby. Your hotel booking covers accommodation nights. Your companion booking covers agreed service hours. A 48-hour companion package is not medical clearance to leave after two days.

Three timelines to keep separate

  1. Your surgeon’s local-stay requirement

    Ask your surgical team how long you must remain nearby and when you may travel home.

  2. Your hotel reservation

    Arrival and departure dates, with room to adjust if your surgical team changes the plan.

  3. Your companion coverage

    Choose support hours around discharge and daily needs. Support hours do not determine medical readiness to travel.

Not sure about dates yet?

You can start a request with tentative dates. We will identify what still needs confirmation.

Where to stay

A comfortable place to stay

A separate bedroom, space for someone traveling with you, or a kitchen for simple meals can make the practical side of a visit easier. We help explore accommodation options around your location, dates and preferences.

PSS does not own or operate the hotels. Before you confirm, we will identify the property, proposed room category, available amenities and applicable booking terms. Room types and facilities vary by property and availability.

Room to rest and settle in

These are preferences we can request, not guaranteed inventory. Availability and room assignment are confirmed before anything is represented as final.

Recovery support

Someone to help with the practical details

Your companion can meet you at the clinic after discharge is authorized, help coordinate your ride and help you settle into your confirmed accommodation. During booked support hours, we can assist with agreed everyday arrangements, such as meal delivery, keeping essentials within reach and organizing transport to follow-up appointments.

Our support is non-medical. We do not administer medication, dress wounds, remove drains or make clinical assessments. If your surgical team says you need nursing or other clinical care, that must be arranged with an appropriately licensed provider. Please tell us early so we can help you identify which arrangements still need to be made.

Travel

Arriving in New York

New York visits may involve John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), LaGuardia Airport (LGA) or Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR). Tell us your arrival point, accommodation and any access requirements so we can discuss transportation arrangements.

Airport transfers and clinic discharge transportation are separate arrangements unless your quote includes both. Travel times and fares depend on your route and conditions; we confirm the details for your trip.

Getting to appointments and traveling home

We can help coordinate transport to your scheduled appointments. Your clinical team sets appointment times and gives you medical and travel instructions. Before your return journey, confirm with them that your travel plans are appropriate.

    Share your tentative dates and confirm requirements with your clinic.

  2. Procedure day logistics

    Discharge escort and transportation, as arranged in your quote.

  3. Settling in

  4. Follow-up transport

  5. Departure arrangements

Costs

Clear arrangements and an itemized estimate

Your estimate should show what you are booking with PSS and which costs belong to other providers. Accommodation, transportation and companion support may be quoted separately. Surgical, facility and clinical fees come from your healthcare providers. We will explain the services included in your PSS quote before you confirm.

Questions

Questions visitors are likely to ask

Do you own the recovery suites?

No. We coordinate stays at independently operated hotels. Your proposed property, room category and booking terms are confirmed before you commit.

Can I use my own hotel or stay at home?

Tell us your location and requested dates. We will check whether support can be arranged there and whether the property allows the planned companion access.

Can I travel alone?

Tell us what support you will have. Confirm the discharge and responsible-adult requirements with your clinic, then arrange the appropriate escort and support before the procedure.

Do you provide nurses?

PSS provides non-medical companion support. Nursing and other clinical services must be arranged with an appropriately licensed provider when required by your surgical team.

What happens if my dates change?

Contact your coordinator as soon as possible. We will review options, availability and any change or cancellation charges under the terms of your booking.

Can you tell me when I can fly home?

Your surgical team must advise you on travel. We can help adjust logistics around their guidance.

Can you finance my surgery and stay?

Financing is not currently offered through PSS. Your healthcare provider may have its own payment options; ask that provider directly.
