I am scheduled for my surgery with Dr. Ilan in a few days. I have not spoken to him directly, but have had friendly/professional conversations with members of his Accounting and Transportation team. Is it normal to not receive any communication directly from the surgeon and to arrive for a consult and labs and surgery all in the same day? Also, what should my companion and I expect the following day of surgery to look like? How many days should I prepare to spend in the recovery hotel?
