My surgeon, Dr. Perreira-Hong out of Guelph told me she gives everyone 4 weeks but she was more than happy when I went back to work early.  I was off for 3 weeks and then went back half days for one week and full time after that.  I had no problems and I could have gone back after 2 weeks, but I was using vacation days, so I just enjoyed the last week off.
