is an online consultation as good as in person consultation for surgery?

@Lorsss

Does anyone know that having a consultation over skype for a bimax is the same as attending in person?

Can the surgeon ascertain the correct movements down to the last mm?

or is it best in person.

It’s probably best in person, cameras distort stuff and angles look weird, just meet him in person

It’s better in person. I traveled to Rio just to have an in person consultation with my surgeon after I’ve already had an online consultation.

Did your surgical plan change in any way from your online consultation to in person. Or was it the same ?

The same but he confirmed what he already thought, he said he would feel more sure of his assessment if he met me in person before the surgery

I'd do both just to be safe

Definitely worth meeting in person for any surgery tbh
