Question for Dr Oliphant patients

I have been approved for surgery and have my appointment with the dietitian and Dr O on March 13th. I was just wondering if anyone can tell me what other appointments will be required for him to do the surgery. I do have my psych appointment also set up. I really want to be able to schedule my surgery when I see him in a few weeks but don't want to be surprised if he needs more tests. I have been trying for over a year to get approved and now that I have my approval I am really anxious to get this scheduled so I can tell my employer. Also, does anyone know how far out he is booking his surgeries? Thanks for any help anyone can give me. Deanna

I just had my surgery in December. I had to do a sleep test then the pre-op teaching aslo lab work and ekg. if you need anymore help email me. Trisha 337/290/170
