I have my one month post op follow up today at toronto western hospital and I was wondering what to expect. From what I have been told it is a group thing. However I'm wondering if we get any one on one time with the clinicians.

Any my input here would be great

also I would like two more weeks off from work. Is there someone in the clinic who can write me that note?

Hi,

Not sure what will happen at the appointment, sorry, but I believe the only one who can sign off on time off would be the surgeon.

Your family Dr should be able write you off for two more weeks. Maybe if you call ahead of time your surgeon can write you one to be ready for that day?

How are you at one month out?

The surgeon or the RN can probably write you the note if they feel you need the extra time.

As for the 1 month, when I went in Ottawa, they checked to see how I was doing, and I can't remember if I saw the Nut or not. Take your journal in case you need to show it. It's also a good time to ask questions that you may have.
