We offer a HIPAA-compliant Referrals Portal

Sending patient information by email is risky and often requires paying for an additional service in order to protect patient privacy and stay HIPAA compliant. That's why we encourage all of our referring dentists to use our Referrals Portal. It's safe, fast, and incredibly convenient!

​With the Referrals Portal, you can...

  • Send patient information securely

  • Protect patient privacy and stay HIPAA compliant

  • Maintain accuracy of patient information - with no risk of transposition errors

  • Easily mark the teeth that need to be treated using our chart

  • Stay up-to-date with reports on your patient

Here’s what our patients are saying…

  • "Highly recommend"

I couldn't recommend a better place than Hometown Endodontics!
