Doctors are good at doing the "fixing" work, but the recovery work is something else

Good physios will insist on working as soon as possible, even if it's very light work.

Anecdata but I agree. Had two spine surgeries at two highly regarded places and those surgeons had no clue whatsoever on the recovery. They've fixed their part and the rehab part is someone else's problem.

Luckily I have a good therapist. But still I'm disappointed as they should know that part better.
