1. Medical Evaluation: A thorough medical evaluation to assess overall health and identify any conditions that might affect surgery. 2. Medication Review: Discussing current medications with the surgeon, as some may need to be stopped before surgery. 3. Pre-Surgery Instructions: Following specific instructions regarding fasting, bowel preparation, and hygiene. 4. Emotional Preparation: Mental and emotional preparation, including counseling or support groups, can be beneficial.
