Your surgeon should have a list of requirements, it varies. I needed an endoscopy, EKG and blood work. I didn't have any other medical issues. I have seen others that needed a sleep study and other tests based on their specific medical needs.

If you are working with a Bari surgeon, they will let you know what tests need to be done. I just got the process started and have had to have a ton of blood work and an upper endoscopy. They were all ordered by the Bari surgeon or the nurse with the Bari clinic. However, I am sure it is different for all clinics. This has just been my experience.
