As with all the specialists, Dr Tait aims to be approachable and establish a working relationship with referring practitioners for the benefit of their patients. If you wish to discuss a case prior to referring then please do call or e-mail Dr Tait at the practice. Similarly, once referred, if Dr Tait is unclear about the treatment being requested or feels other options are available she will contact you as soon as is practical.

The referral process

After receiving your referral we will send your patient a consultation appointment and include useful information describing endodontic treatment for their perusal. Following the consultation, for which as a courtesy to you for your referral, there is no charge Dr Tait will agree the treatment plan and costs with the patient and a subsequent treatment appointment will be offered.

Where ever possible please send any relevant radiographs with your referral letter. These will be returned to you on completion of the patient’s treatment.

On completion of treatment, the patient will be referred back to your care for the completion of any restorative work that may be required. A full report, along with supporting treatment radiographs, will be sent to you.
