I don’t think they would be allowed to fire you while you are on medical leave.

Just focus on getting better.
My doctor referred me to two organizations for a pdoc. Neither one returned my call. I then went to my health insurance provider to find a pdoc within network. All cost over $200 out of pocket.... I need to try and get a hold of one to see if they have availability. My primary doctor said it's very difficult to get a psychiatrist right now due to covid. I just reached out to a friend of mine for a referral. He need med management and was trying to find a pdoc not too long ago. It will take some time to find one.
