Abstract
Consistent follow-up with bariatric patients is extremely challenging. Our 1-year follow-up rates averaged 34 - 58% despite requirements for annual visits specified in the pre-surgical consent form. Other follow-up improvement strategies included program-sponsored group events, postage-paid and online questionnaires, and daytime phone calls from bariatric nurses. These methods yielded response rates of only 8 - 10%.
