When you do meet your surgeon, don't worry if they aren't a people person. The skill you need is in their hands, not their personality. When you meet the anesthesiologist, (and general advice with all medical personnel) be honest about anything they ask you, like about previous drug experiences. They don't ask to judge you, it's to judge what and how much to give you, and how to expect you might react.

I've had experiences with surgeons, so I won't be surprised if this guy is kind of an ass. Idgaf as long as he fixes me. Every anesthesiologist I've met have been so nice
