Is this your first pre-op appointment? Technically speaking all your appointments with the bariatric team before surgery are pre-op. Do you mean pre-admission appointment?

My sister calls it my hospital weekend luggage. I got the garment bag & hanger when I had my IVC filter put in. They stored my clothes in it since it was a same day procedure.
