We do rounds every morning and the PAs are writing notes on post op patient, sometimes that is a shared duty with the surgeons.
We usually have less than 10 patients in the hospital at a time.
We do the follow-up clinic at the hospital in the afternoon on Tuesday and Thursday (often after a morning surgery) and see up to 6 patients. Once in a while we see a patient at other times if there is an issue that can't wait until our next clinic day.
