Ms.AntiBand 2,984 Posted January 29, 2013 A drs note should be included in your discharge packet. If not just ask and there shouldn't be a problem. MX surgeons are very competent, professional and experienced at what they do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bayareanan 24 Posted January 30, 2013 They dr will fill out FMLA paperwork, disability insurance and also a note to go back to work. I went to Dr A Ortiz. His return to work note had a BIG picture on the top of the form with Obesity Control Center on it. I asked them to remove it, and they did. Then the only thing that said Obesity Control Center was fine print on the bottom of the paperwork. You might want to see how your note looks before you leave.

Pelekania 156 Posted January 30, 2013 How do you get a doctors note to be out of work from a doctor in Mexico? Has anyone received a doctors note from Dr. Garcia before leaving for the trip? I emailed my coordinator and sent her what I wanted the note to say. She then emailed me the note on his letterhead with a signature. Dr. Garcia is my surgeon as well.
