Abstract Objective: Report outcomes of rapid implementation of telehealth across an academic otolaryngology-head and neck surgery department during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods: This is a retrospective, single-institution study of rapid deployment of telehealth during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Conclusion: Rapid implementation of telehealth in an academic otolaryngology-head and neck surgery department is feasible. There was high acceptance of and satisfaction scores with telehealth.
