A psychiatric evaluation and clearance are necessary before undergoing specific surgical procedures, including
- Neurostimulator Implantation
- Morphine Pump Implantation
- Bariatric Surgical Procedures

Patients must obtain clearance before these surgeries to ensure they are not experiencing acute mental illness, possess the capacity to provide informed consent, and can receive treatment for any acute mental health issues before and after procedures if necessary.
