The entire process should be made clear before the surgery is done. Sometimes the surgeon will only do the surgery and the family doctor or another doctor is responsible for all followup. Such a procedure should be made clear to the patient before the surgery. It is important that a family member or other person go with the patient to surgery to obtain follow up information. Frequently the patient is dazed and does not understand followup instructions. You should have written instructions for followup care that you received following surgery. That should tell you which medical personnel you are to use.
