I’m scheduled for breast augmentation on the 20th. I just found out my pre op appointment will be through video. Is that normal?
Answer: Online consultations. Online consultation is a quick, convenient and secure way to digitally contact your surgeon and get advice, without having to wait on the phone or take time out to come into the office. At my practice, I do online consultations with my patients prior to their surgeries especially if they are traveling from overseas. Moreover, I definitely meet with them in person either the day before or the day of their surgery to examine them in person, discuss everything about the surgery in detail and answer their questions and put their minds at ease. Good luck with your surgery.

Answer: Pre-op visit by video Thanks for your inquiry, in my practice we see all patients in person for their pre-operative visit, but since the start of the COVID pandemic many practices have moved to virtual options in delivering patient care. If you are unhappy with this choice, ask your surgeon's office that you prefer in an person visit and they might accommodate you, best of luck with surgery.

Answer: Virtual pre-op evaluation It will depend of your and your surgeon's comfort. You will see your surgeon on a day of surgery and have a chance to discuss any issues, as needed. It is becoming more and more frequent with patients out of town. Good luck.

Answer: Pre op tele health Thank you for your question. Each Surgeon will have their own pre operative protocol they wish to follow. If you are uncomfortable with a video call, I would suggest calling the office to see if you could be seen in person. Best of luck to you.
