I'm less than 18 hours away from my surgery, and I was looking through my paperwork to find out what appointments there will be following the surgery. But I couldn't find any. I know you meet with the surgeon and dietician.   Are there others? And how often do you meet?   

Thanks in advance.

My list isn't handy, but at Guelph, I'm pretty sure you meet with the RN & NUT at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, and then annually from then on. There's a follow-up with the surgeon at 1 month. I'm not sure about after that.

Referred to Guelph, Dec. 3/12. Orientation: Mar 7/13. NUT/SW/RN Jun 18/13. Nutrition Class Jul 3/13. NUT/SW/RN Aug 19/13. Post-op Nutrition Class Dec 30/13. Approval for surgery from Dr. Jules Foute Nelong Feb 10/14. Surgery Apr 23/14.

I forgot to mention I'm out of TWH with my surgery at TEGH.   But it sounds like it's RN, Dietician & Surgeon that you see after.  Thank you all.
