Summary

This study will compare patient reported outcomes (PROs) of patients seen at virtual phone visits compared to in-person visits for 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months post-operative follow up at a sports medicine clinic. This study will determine if there is a difference in PROs between these two groups of patients. The investigators hypothesize patients who are seen during a virtual phone visit will report different PRO compared to patients who are seen during an in-person visit for post-operative follow-up at 6-months.
