My journey with a T11 to L4 spinal fusion - 40 degree scoliosis curve

Hi Sherry,
I just read your post to Tonya and I noticed you said your surgeon talked about living life in your zoom appointment?
Before you went back for your procedure, did you get an evaluation through a zoom appointment? They’ve asked me to fly out to Arizona for the evaluation. I guess then If I’m considered a candidate for surgery, I will go home and then fly back to Phoenix again?
I will call and get that clarified, I just wondered if your appointment was done that way ?
Thanks,
Bob

Hi Bob, that is exactly what I did. I flew out for my evaluation, scheduled my surgery at that same appointment, flew back to Mayo and had bloodwork and other testing that they wanted done specifically at their hospital, and had surgery the next day. I’ve have 3 follow up zoom appointments with my surgeon since then. He was ok with that since I haven’t had any complications.
