Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether separate- versus same-day preoperative consultation affects time to treatment (start to finish), utilization rate of Mohs, rate of case cancellations, cost, and patient satisfaction. The investigators hypothesize that patients with same-day preoperative consultation will have a shorter time between cancer diagnosis and removal but, only when coordination of care is needed, longer time between removal and consultation with other specialists, as compared to patients with separate-day consultation. The investigators anticipate that patients with same-day preoperative consultation will have a decrease in travel cost as compared to patients with separate-day consultation. The investigators expect that there will be no difference in various satisfaction matters between groups, with the exception of potentially greater convenience reported by patients in the same-day preoperative consultation group. Finally, the investigators hypothesize that there will be no difference between groups in regards to rates of surgery cancellation.
