Standardized Form Helps Make Referrals Easier


 

Dr. Eastern said he prefers to send this abbreviated form, rather than a more detailed consultation letter, because he finds it's more useful for the referring physician.

“They want it fast,” Dr. Eastern said. “That's the No. 1 thing for them.”

The referral form can be accessed atwww.wfubmc.edu/dermatology/files/consultation_form.doc
