    Hi Everyone,

    Our Group's Surgeons have full blood work done, EKG and Chest X-ray as part of their Pre-op tests.

    There may also be additional test done as well, depending on the patient's medical history.

    I forgot to mention that I had recently had some blood work and an EKG done at my PCP so they just used those results rather than repeating the same tests.

    I had to do a blood test which looked for some sort of stomach infection.
