Check airway;slabs: The pre anesthesia visit can be done at a different time especially if there are issues with weight, medical problems or medications. May also want to talk about nerve blocks.

Depends: It may be the usual practice to go over anesthesia. It may be that something showed up in blood work or ekg etc. This will also give u chance to ask questions. Don't be afraid. It's is probably just a precaution.
