No surgeon, but must go to a doctor to get a checkup before a prescription will be refilled. I'll go for the blood work early and try to get into the office without having others in there ahead of me in case they're breathing COVID germs. And the doctor checkup - with Omicron so prevalent, I'll wait in the car and have them call me back indoors when it's my time to go into the exam.

Maybe they'll set up an awning or tent for your surgery, to avoid COVID. It might be a little chilly, but you'll be unconscious . . .
