Abstract
To the Editor: In a recent retrospective cohort, female sex, larger defect size, and nonlinear closures were all associated with an increased likelihood of patient-initiated communication after Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS).1 However, such predictors have not been evaluated prospectively, and it is unknown whether similar predictors are present when clinic staff do not preemptively contact patients in the early postoperative period. Our objective was to identify the frequency, timing, and predictors of patient-initiated communication after MMS at 2 institutions differing by the presence of a clinic-initiated postoperative telephone call.
