Physician Referrals and Transfers
Referring Physician
Referring patients to Deborah Heart and Lung Center for cardiovascular and pulmonary care is easy. Physicians can connect with Deborah 24/7 through the referral line at (800) 214-3452.
Deborah Heart and Lung Center respects the unique relationship between the patient and the referring physician. Therefore, every effort is made to include the referring physician in the plan of care for the patient. The referring physician is informed and consulted on every aspect of the patient’s treatment, and the Deborah physician is available to discuss the patient’s care and to answer questions from the referring physician.
Transfer From Another Hospital
Patients admitted to another hospital for an emergency can be transferred to Deborah by their attending physician. A call to the Physician Transfer Line at (877) 717-3452 will start the transfer process. Transfers can be made 24/7 and, many times, can be accommodated immediately. Deborah has a heliport on site to accommodate emergency transfers.
