Yes always had a pre-op assessment before an op, they only last 3 months so would query if they plan your op sooner. All the best. X
I saw the consultant two weeks ago and he said its a six to eight month waiting list,this pre op assessment would take place at least six months before the op.Many thanks for replying.
That seems daft to have a pre-op so long before planned surgery - perhaps they are hoping to do it earlier? I would ask.
Yes they’ll check basics like heart, lungs etc it routine. They have checklists to follow which is very reassuring
Thanks for your reply.
