Pre ops cover you for up to 6 months, so it depends on how busy your hospital is.

Hi

I had my pre op 10th jan and had the op 6th March - was told my pre op assessment would last 3 months.

Good luck!

I had my pre op 2 weeks before my op.

The advice I had said between two weeks to three months before. However if there's a significant change or medical issues that can cause change they can ask for repeat tests (another pre op) closer to the time / delay the op so the pre op can be repeated.
