I didn't get quite that far, long story I'll go into later, but mine was to consist of receiving an additional booklet with any last minute presurgical instructions, a written paper confirming my surgery date and insurance coverage validated. A legal paper stating any valuables I transported in would be at my own risk. That's what I was told.Also an arrival time, told if there was a change they would contact me by e mail or phone. Lastly a signed note from the staff thanking me for being their patient(in case I didn't live through it?). At least this is what my friend received a few months ago.

My pre-op with the surgeon was to go over all of the tests I had. This is different than the pre-anasthesia checkup, which I had this morning. It was a review of my medical history and medications, a basic physical exam, some blood work, and instructions about surgery day (where to go, what to wear, what to bring). If you havent had an EKG in the past 6 months, you may need one. I went directly though the hospital, but your PCP can also do it. Good luck!
