Physicians: How to Refer a Patient
- We are happy to evaluate your patients with systemic sclerosis, suspected systemic sclerosis, localized scleroderma and scleroderma mimics (eosinophilic fasciitis, scleromyxedema, scleroderma etc)
- An experienced clinician reviews all new patients referred to our center for urgency. To complete this review, we require the patient’s medical records be sent for review or are available to us in our EMR (Epic or Care Everywhere)
- Fax all relevant records to our new patient review fax line at (410) 367-2371 with attention to the Scleroderma Center New Patient Appointments (please include labs, pulmonary function testing, echocardiograms, CT scan reports as applicable).
- Once this information is received and reviewed, we will contact the patient to schedule a consultation.
- If you have an urgent patient who has not received an appointment in a timely manner, please reach out to the center directly to be connected to one of our physicians to discuss.
