What is meant by "My team?"

It absolutely is a team.
You imagine them sitting around together drinking coffee, talking about how much you've peed today.
In fact, its a *relay* team.
The experts do their bit, update your records & pass on to the next expert.

The MRI people have no idea how to a biopsy & pathology people have no idea how to remove a catheter.
It's a team of experts - each doing their specialist party trick, then passing on to the next expert.
But it's a unified team with a unified goal - helping you stay out of hospital.

I think the term is applicable. How many nurses and PA's have you seen? They are part of "the team" too, but not doctors. You could say "well, then my healthcare providers".

The hospital I chose for my surgery could easily be defined as "a team". At the top of the list was my urologist, his staff of nurses and PA's, the orders to the MRI folks, the CAT scan folks, the blood folks, the social workers, the oncologists, the orderlies, the volunteer who checked me in for my surgery. Then in the hospital I went through a number of shift changes and new staff of varying types that helped me.

They all worked together. I don't know how else I would define them other than team.

But then "my team" extends beyond the hospital. I have my wife, my personal trainer, my pelvic floor therapist, my friends and my family. Some were cheerleaders, some had important roles in my recovery and outcome, others were supportive during the process. Adding to that would be the people I've met here and on other forums that became part of my team of support or information.

My team.

I'm not arguing your interpretation of the term, simply offering my own 😉.

Also, because I'm a big nerd and this is one of my all time favorite shows:

In addition to what the others have said, the team also includes therapist, social workers, chaplains, etc. plus, at least for radiation, a ton of behind the scenes people: physicists, dosimetrists, etc.

Thanks for the laugh.

Moss: "Umm it actually already is a word: tnetennba."
Host: "Could you use it in a sentence for us?"
Moss: "Good morning, that's a nice tnetennba."

I see there's another IT Crowd nerd here! I have to re-watch the whole thing every year, sometimes sooner because I Jones for Moss's wisdom!

I love that show - especially since that's pretty much my job. Can totally relate to all of it. Did you ever see the pilot for the American version?

Yes, it was horrible. I owned an IT company for many years, now I'm IT adjacent so I totally relate to that show 😉.
