How often will I need to be seen following shoulder replacement surgery?

You will be seen for your first post-operative office visit 7-10 days after hospital discharge to check your wound, remove the staples and review the forthcoming rehab protocol. Typically the physician assistant, Ms. Christiane Riella, PA-C performs this review. Additional visits at 6 weeks post-op and at 1 year as directed by your surgeon are typical. If any problems or concerns arise, additional visits will be needed to give you the best care.
