How often do you have Post-Op appointments?

[apiane 174]

In what intervals and how many post-op appointments do most people have? It's the one thing I don't know about my surgeon. Just wondering. Thanks!

It probably varies. I saw my surgeon two weeks after surgery. I just saw the PA at the two month mark. My next appt. is at six months.

Mine were/are: 1 week, 1 month, 3 month, 6 month and 1 year. I have 3 down and 2 to go!

I saw the surgeon at 3 weeks, 3 months, and I'll see her again at 9 months. I saw the nutritionist at 3 months.

I had 1 month, 3 month, 6 month, and a 12 month in November. Then either annual or maybe an 18 month? Unsure. But I saw them a LOT in the first 3 months from complications.

I think my first one was at two or three weeks out, then every three months for the first year. Now I just go annually.

My insurance covers 90 days after surgery no co-pay. My first was 2 weeks then I will go two more times then 6 months and one year. I don't remember the time frame thereafter. I will see my PCP in September.

My surgery date was 4/29/19.

Thanks everyone that gives me a good idea 😃

Doctor at 2 weeks.

Doctor and NUT at 1 month (it might have been 6 weeks?), 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year and once a year every year after that. I also had a couple very long visit-like telephone calls because I was having some complications.
