3

Written report to referring dentist and patient

A full consultation report is sent to dentist and patient – you can discuss the case directly with Dr. Vaghela at any point.

4

Treatment plan given to patient

Before any treatment begins, the proposed plan is given to the patient and can be shared with you with your patient’s consent.

5

Milestone updates throughout

For longer treatment courses, we provide progress updates to your practice at agreed intervals.

6

Patient returned to your care

On completion, a full discharge summary is sent. Your patient is returned to your practice — this is not a route for us to build a general patient base.
