See if you can get some advice while that is happening, i.e. where to go if you suffer discomfort; what signs to look out for regarding infection and complications.
Ask what sort of timescale you should be looking at for pain management and rehabilitation. You probably won't get definitive answers about when stuff should happen but you'll have an idea as to whether that Fracture Clinic appointment is too long to wait, when you should seek help if you are worried about something and whether you need to seek more specific advice about recovery.
If everything proceeds smoothly I wouldn't expect much to happen in those few weeks and I had similar waits after surgery. You are already well ahead of the curve compared to someone referred to a FC, then referred to a surgeon, then waiting for surgery, then waiting for a follow up FC appointment and then physio.
Good luck!
