Hard to have common metrics. Personally would like to know my conversion rate to surgery over 90 days. Wait times for patients to schedule a visit. Patient mix (new, est, pov). How long they wait in clinic. Would help build a more efficient schedule, adjust access & visit times.
Can any surgeons comment on metrics used in surgical clinics to incentivize process improvement and improved access? We found common metrics like “new patients seen in 10 days%” and “new patient mix” may ring true in medical clinics primarily and dont inspire for surgeons.

I tell my patients that I’m a “GI plumber” but sometimes end up being one at home! I should stick with my day job. @EmorySurgery @SAGES_Updates

We’re spoiled with our airport. People complain but I’ve never had a problem. Just waited 45 mins to get my bag at SFO. #hartsfieldjackson.
