@mikaylar: Yup, happened to me as well. Consultation with surgeon for lumpectomy - maybe 15 minutes in office. Day of surgery (still with COVID protocol, mask on my face at all times) he waltzes in about 40 minutes behind schedule, says “hey”, scribbles something on my right shoulder, and that was it. Post surgery consult a few days later was with a very nice PA, never saw the surgeon again. And - because of numerous delays, recovery rooms were full, so I went from that immediate “waking-up” station/stage straight out the door.

Omg, I am not alone. I went from waking up and 45 minutes out the door. I could hardy get dressed; I was so groggy. Years ago they sent my daughter home right after a hysterectomy and that night she could not urinate. I raced her back, they catharised her and then had the gall to charge her another co-pay FOR THE SAME DAY that they screwed up. I wrote 7 letters to ever CEO and anyone of importance. We got off the hook. This is not good.
