Unless you have problems that the anestesiologist has to take into consideration i think you just meet them the day of. Thats how it was with my other surgery (i havent been sleeved yet).

I met mine the day of surgery. She walked in, introduced herself, asked me the same questions that I was asked a billion times before, she wrote some stuff, scanned my chart, asked if I had a sleep study done, I said no. She did not look to happy about that but turned to the nurse and said I'm ready let's do this. I never saw her again.

Aviiva, the anesthesiologist is my favorite person ever! They have all the good stuff. But yes, you'll probably meet him/her after you're prepped and have your IV in place. And don't hesitate to express any concerns you have or ask for something to calm you. They are literally Dr. Feelgood and it's their job to make sure you're comfortable and safe throughout the procedure. I even told mine about my claustrophobia so he made sure the oxygen mask was just near my nose and mouth till I was knocked out.

I met the anesthesiologist's assistant about an hour before surgery, and the anesthesiologist about ten minutes before surgery.

I vaguely remember some guy that I think was the anesthesiologist right before surgery. I had to really think about this one, but I do remember someone coming in, talking to me for a minute, then I was given something that sent me into happy land. I barely remember someone else (female) holding an oxygen mask up to my face and telling me to breathe deep. I said "Goodbye", then I woke up and went What? I think they guy was the anesthesia person and the woman must have been his assistant. Thank heavens for good drugs! :)

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
