Two kinds of referral letters
Two kinds of referral letters:
1. To the
medical practioner requesting assessment of the current status of the patient
(this is required in the case of medically compromised patients before doing
invasive procedures, for eg, Referral of a diabetic patient before periodontal
surgery)
2. To the
dental specialist, requesting assessment or treatment. (For eg, request to an
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon for management of suspected mucocele!)
The following is a guide to write referral letter to a
general physician
Note:
This referral letter format is general format for
writing a referral letter. Those who have already taken OET exams, kindly
specify any specific changes/additional requirements with respect to OET exams
(which I am NOT aware of).
I have done this file in hurry and any silly mistakes or
typo errors are regretted. If you find any mistake, kindly inform me about the
same at
webmaster@rxbds.com and I will make the corrections at the earliest.
