The kind of appointment will vary depending upon the nature and complexity of the patient's condition. In some instances, the initial appointment will be directly with the surgeon. In other cases, the surgeon will choose to have the patient's care managed by a medical specialist, in order to get a more comprehensive assessment of the patient's situation. In this instance, the surgeon will see the patient as one of many specialists involved in the patient's care.
Past operative notes – Copies of operative notes from previous operations for the condition for which the patient is seeking an appointment.
