ABSTRACT
The era of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2) is rapidly evolving. To comply to the guidelines for social distancing and reducing travel to prevent the spread of disease, many centers made rapid adjustments to conduct follow-up appointments through telehealth mediums.
