Same thing here.  My BF has 5 hernias surrounding his surgical scar  from surgery last summer. 

The surgeon told us at the first appt that elective surgeries were cancelled for 6 weeks out due to covid.  When he went to be cleared by the pulmonologist, he was told surgeries were cancelled even further out. 

Fortunately, the surgeon gave his a brace to wear and they don't bother him all that much. They told him to expect a hospital stay of 5-7 days and we've been extra careful of not going to events that have a higher risk of exposure to covid (in spite of being vaccinated)

Update today on my aunt.   She said they pushed her biopsy out a week from the appointment scheduled this week now because of meds she takes for her colitis. 

I asked her why they didn't set all that up with her when they made the biopsy date.  She wasn't sure but she was upset that they didn't coordinate that before.

That has nothing to do with a schedling issue.  Her daughter is angry as heck too.

How the heck do you forget to take that into consideration.   It may not be the surgeon, but the office staff.   They make a lot of mistakes.  

What a shame, now she has to wait another week to get it done.   Shouldn't be this confusing.
