Thanks Alle, I assume there will be blood work and vitals but is there anything else I can study up for?

Bring a list of any vitamins/supplements you are currently taking. They may ask you to discontinue some before the surgery.
Other than that, I can't think of anything. They just one final check with you before the big day.
