WHAT TO EXPECT
As soon as you receive your surgery date, we encourage you to reach out to us. Early planning ensures that your post-op physiotherapy appointments are secured and aligned with your recovery timeline. We typically aim to begin rehab 7 to 11 days after surgery, depending on how you're feeling — this window allows for initial healing while ensuring you're supported early in your recovery process.
