each hospital is different, but at the RVH i had a blood draw, xray, ECG, meet with general doctor, bariatric nurse, anesthesiologist.  The pre-op office books the appointment and they run you through them all in one day.  they are to judge your general fitness for surgery and i think the results are good for a month or more before surgery date.

 

HW: 407   Final Appointment : 376   Pre-op Diet Start: 367   SW: 350 (Apr2/2013) Add me on MFP
