Pre-op tests?

Can someone tell me what their pre-op consisted of? Thanks.

Wow, please don't get pissy about it. I just have concerns and wonder if anyone has experienced it firsthand. I am only asking for advice and first hand experience.

I understand that his pre-op is answering questions but what if there is a condition that I am not aware of? Most doctors cover the pre-op test cost with the cost of the surgery. I wonder if he is skipping the pre-op test for cost, what else is he skipping? I just want to pick the BEST option for me.

Hello, I am seriously considering Dr. K and would like your input. I talked to the coordinator and was told that there are no pre-op test performed because their patients are overweight but healhy. I asked her how she knew they were healthy if no test were performed and I did not recieve an answer. Also, there is no over night stay at the hospital. Can you tell me if this sounds right? And if the over night stay in the hotel was perferred over the hospital. Any info is appreciated.

If anyone knows of a surgeon practicing on the east coast that charges under $10,000, please forward their info.

Hi. I am considering Dr. Aceves. Can you tell me your honest opinion about him and the hospital staff. Also, have you had a problem finding follow-up care in the US? Any info is appreciated.
