I do not think doctors need to write to DMV to pull licenses for post-op surgical procedures or if the person is prescribed a sling. I am not sure the law against driving with a sling. It may be under impaired driving as unable to safely operate, but I am not sure how you can ticket someone for that if they are not driving erratically or caused an accident. It certainly isn't his doctor's fault he made a decision to drive and who knows how long he has had that sling or why in the world he was wearing it.
