If you have the time or inclination, you could contact their office manager and tell her that this is inappropriate.<br /><br />I was a nurse on the ortho/trauma unit at UVA for two years. I don't recall ever taking care of a patient who had the type of surgery you're having. I'm guessing it's outpatient?
