Dr. Jonathan Cunha is seeking vascular surgeons to participate in a qualitative study on barriers to follow-up after EVAR. Fill out this Qualtrics form to express interest in participating. Learn more in this letter from Dr. Cunha, below.

Dear BMC2 Colleagues,

My name is Jonathan Cunha, and I am a General Surgery Resident at the University of Michigan. I am working with Dr. Nicholas Osborne and Dr. Mary Byrnes in the Vascular Surgery Department. I am writing to invite you, along with other vascular surgeons, to participate in a qualitative research study that aims to investigate both patient barriers and surgeon-perceived barriers to follow-up care after EVAR.

This study seeks to gain deeper insights into the challenges surrounding follow-up adherence post-EVAR from both the patient's and the surgeon’s perspectives. Understanding these barriers is crucial to developing strategies that can enhance patient outcomes and streamline post-operative care.

Next Steps:

If you are willing to participate, please fill out this Qualtrics form.

Thank you for considering this request. We hope to collaborate with you on this important research.

Warm regards,

Jonathan Cunha
