Common practice is for your local doctor to "follow" you along, and be available for continuing care, after s/he refers you to a specialist. Ask the bladder specialist to copy records to your local doctor - you will likely hear that is is done as a matter of course. The specialist will let you know when to return to the specialist and when to see your local doctor for care.
Specialists (including super-specialists) count on having a true working relationship with many other doctors; every level of specialization has its limits of practice.
Ask any and everything. But be organized, have a list, and be ready for answers that contain a degree of uncertainty. Surgeons often have to make some decisions during the course of an operation.
A google search on Dr. Terris shows a great looking CV including a 4 year Urology residency at Stanford, not to mention her chairing the department at Augusta.

Be open to discussion, express your concerns, admit to your uncertainty, and ask for assistance from your medical care team. It is a team, any you are a part of it; together you will reach the important decisions.
Best to you both
