How to refer:
To refer a patient to us, you can use several different options:
ERS – We receive referrals via a DOS (Directory of Service) on ERS, which allows referrers to refer in to us and book an appointment for a patient. As a result of the above, searching on ERS the AMD service will be shown as an ‘Appointment Request’ service. The DOS is published on the secondary care menu on ERS, so it is open to anybody at all to make a referral into the service. The DOS name is in the following format; PRACTICE PLUS GROUP – SHEPTON MALLET WET AMD
