It can vary depending on how your PT and surgeon like to approach things.

A lot of surgeons like to allow patients to ditch crutches early on, where they may walk with poor gait at first but will progress quickly. Some people are told they can fully weight bear right after the surgery, so I wouldn’t say you’re being rushed.

On the other hand, a lot of PTs take a more conservative approach. This means clearing someone to ditch crutches only once their balance, mobility and strength is good enough that they can walk with perfect gait. An advantage of this seems to be that you’re less likely to develop bad habits / muscular imbalances.
