MacBook Pro CD drive

I have a mid-2012 MacBook Pro. The hard drive crashed and was replaced with a 500Gb SSD. THe Macbook was upgraded to Catalina 10.15.7.. When I got it back from the shop, the CD/DVD drive as well a the card reader no longer works. Are these tools gone forever?

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.13

Seems the drivers may be missing. So,...

Reinstall the macOS:
