Sample Referral

Please see the below example of a referral one of our current patient advocates sent out not too long ago. She is personal, but professional and gives enough options within each specialty to let the patient choose for themselves. She also presents all important information (phone, location, name, next available appt time).

Hi Emma,

This is Claruiz with Amaze Health! I have been working with Taylor and Yasmin to help find you in-network Nero ophthalmologists, internists, and female gynecologists. We were able to find a lot of nearby providers that all had great reviews! Although some of the offices I tried to get in contact with were currently closed due to inclement weather, I still wanted to include them just in case you may be interested in reviewing them.

I also wanted you to keep in mind that Dr. Moe Hein Aung, MD, has a very high encounter rate with idiopathic intracranial hypertension and seems to be the best option for you. Although I did provide you with a few other options so that you had a few options to chose from. Listed below are all of the details:
