A randomized controlled trial that will evaluate whether telephone two-week postoperative follow up visits are an acceptable and safe alternative to traditional face-to-face-clinic two-week postoperative visits.

  • Patient Satisfaction

Interventions

OTHER

Telehealth 2 week postoperative visit

The patient randomized into the telephone follow up group, will be contacted, at the pre-scheduled date and time, by the urogynecology clinic nurse. The nurse will utilize a scripted series of postoperative questions, which are consistent with questions asked during our standard postoperative clinic visits. Vital signs and physical examination will be deferred for the patients in the telephone follow up group. Any patient responses that are not consistent with a usual postoperative course will be escalated to an in person visit. However, these patients will remain in the group, to which they were originally randomized, for research analysis purposes. (Intent to treat)
