Referrals to Specialists: Care That Doesn’t Stop at Our Door

Some conditions need a second set of eyes — we’ll make sure you get the right ones, without the runaround.

When You Need More Than Primary Care

Most of your health journey happens with your primary provider. But every once in a while, something comes up that needs a deeper dive — whether that’s a cardiologist for heart palpitations, a dermatologist for a mole, or an orthopedist for a nagging joint injury.

That’s where a specialist comes in.

But here’s the thing: getting to the right specialist shouldn’t be a full-time job. We handle that part for you — recommending trusted professionals, sending your records, and helping you get seen as soon as possible.

No Googling. No guessing. Just continuity of care from someone who already knows your history.

Why Would You Need a Referral?

Some issues are best managed by someone with ultra-specific training — the kind that only comes with a narrowed focus. We refer patients out when:

An issue is outside the scope of general primary care
Imaging or procedures are needed that we don’t perform in-house
A chronic condition requires a second opinion or advanced therapies
You’re considering surgery or specialized treatment
A diagnosis needs more advanced evaluation (neurology, gastroenterology, etc.)

We don’t just refer to anyone — we refer to people we trust, who share our standards and approach.

Common Specialist Referrals We Make

We’ve built relationships with a network of reliable, skilled providers across Oklahoma. Some of the most common referrals we make include:

Cardiologists: for high blood pressure, chest pain, or abnormal EKGs
Dermatologists: for skin conditions, suspicious moles, or chronic rashes
Orthopedists: for joint pain, injuries, or arthritis
Endocrinologists: for diabetes, thyroid issues, or hormone imbalances
Gastroenterologists: for digestive issues, reflux, or GI bleeding
Neurologists: for headaches, numbness, tremors, or seizures
Urologists / Gynecologists: for reproductive health concerns
Mental health providers: for therapy, psychiatric evaluations, or medication management

Whether it’s something routine or something more complex, we’ll connect you with the right person the first time.

What Happens During a Referral?

It’s simple and stress-free:

You meet with your provider here at The Piedmont Clinic
We determine if a specialist is needed
Our team sends your medical history and referral directly to the specialist
You’re contacted to schedule, or we assist with scheduling if needed
After your appointment, your results come back to us so we stay in the loop

You don’t have to play middleman or chase down paperwork. You focus on getting care — we’ll handle the rest.

Why Continuity of Care Matters

When your primary provider and your specialist communicate — everything works better.

There’s less risk of misdiagnosis. Less repetition. Less confusion. And a lot more confidence in your care.

We’re not here to pass the buck. We’re here to stay involved — from the moment we refer you out, to the moment your results come back.

That’s the kind of care we’d want for our own family. So that’s the kind we give to you.
