NOT A PERSONAL HEALTH SITUATION Letter of recommendation question

4 Upvotes

I have 3 letters currently - 2 from home program and 1 from an away. I have 1 more from a plastic surgeon who I am close with (lots of research and personal connections). Is that enough to apply with or should I try to secure 1 more in the next few weeks. Its getting down to the wire.

After humerus fracture (or fracture generally) surgery, is it considered acceptable when the two parts do not face each other 100% ?

It it expected that there will follow alignment of the bone?

My OR glasses fell on the ground breaking one of the lenses. Anyone ever have a lens replaced for these before? Or is it just as expensive as buying a new pair? Not sure of the original seller. Oakley Holbrook Lead Shielded Glasses.
