Seeing dr at home after sugery



Recommended Posts

How does that work? Do you just go see your general practitioner? A specialist?

I'll be going to a nutritionist after I get home but as far as check ups afterwards I can't find too much info.

I went to my PCP when I made my Mx choice. He plans to do my follow up care.

I was back in my surgeon's office at 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks and will be again at 6 weeks then at 3 mos. 6 mos. 9 mos and a year. Each time I go I see the surgeon and the NUT. I get a lot of post op care, but that;s what my insurance is paying for. And I"ve also been instructed that if I have any questions I'm to call his office, not ask strangers on the internet, because that's why he's paying nurses 24/7 to answer the phone. Also, he's made it clear that he's my doctor for life. If I am ever taken to the hospital ER he is to be notified.
