How do I know when to start therapy?

I'm having shoulder replacement surgery in less than a week. I'll be in hospital

overnight, discharged the day after surgery if all is ok. I don't have any idea as to when I'd start physio therapy. Does my Dr. inform me, will it be on my discharge papers? I want to do everything that's right to help ensure success with this procedure. Thanks!

    Your doctor will tell you when it's time to start PT, but if you're concerned, then ask him next time you see him

    You will be told by the hospital and an appointment will be made.

    You will then be told the date.
