When do you need to see avn specialist after sickness
 
What injuries, illnesses require you to see a Avn doc before returning to work.

Eg ruptured Achilles' tendon. Operation required followed by physio.

Can't seem to find anything on websites. Can someone point me in the right direction.

Thanks
