  • Because the surgeon who did the surgery dies not do virtual appointments, and because making a trip to Boston for a follow-up appointment, this provider did the follow-up by Zoom instead. I had xrays and photos of the incision sites sent in advance. He had looked at them before our appointment and was completely knowledgeable about me. I greatly appreciated this work-around.
