What the surgeon
actually reads

The surgeon who sent the knee sits between cycles with almost nothing in front of them, because progress is buried in a chart they will never log into, and the next case is a hallway conversation or luck.

They will read one page. Put range, what moved, and what you need on a sheet that arrives before the follow-up, while last week's fax is still sitting in an inbox nobody opened.

They see what changed. The next knee comes here, and a book that lurches is how you lose the therapists who can actually treat.
