Thank you for trusting us to care for your patient.
All new physician consultations require a referral following MSP guidelines in BC.

See below for Referral Forms to request our Medical Services:

MUSCULOSKELETAL (MSK) REFERRAL FORM

A reminder that all musculoskeletal referrals require an attached x-ray report (current within the past 6 months) in order for the referral to be triaged. Information on preferred x-ray views can be found here: X-ray Views

PERI-OPERATIVE GENERAL INTERNAL MEDICINE REFERRAL FORM

ANTI-COAGULATION GENERAL INTERNAL MEDICINE REFERRAL FORM

OSTEOPOROSIS AND BONE HEALTH REFERRAL FORM

NEUROMUSCULAR MEDICINE REFERRAL FORM (EMG)

RHEUMATOLOGY REFERRAL FORM

Referrals are triaged every three to seven days. Urgent orthopaedic surgery referrals should continue to be directed to the on-call surgeon/clinician through the hospital switchboard at 250.370.8699. All other urgent referrals should be communicated via telephone to the specific physician.

In order to provide timely access to care for your patient, we are piloting a First Available Appropriate Surgeon Triage (FAAST) model. In this model, you can choose to refer your patient to a specific physician/surgeon or you can refer your patient to the FAAST. FAAST referrals will come through a central intake and will then be triaged by an MSK clinician and assigned to the first available appropriate clinician. This clinician will be an expert in musculoskeletal care – either a sports medicine physician, a orthopaedic surgeon, a physiatrist or physiotherapist working in conjunction with a physician. The choice of clinician will be based largely on the information that you provide in your referral, thus it is extremely valuable to provide a provisional diagnosis, severity of symptoms and description of treatment to date. The FAAST will institute treatment, further diagnostic tests if required or expedited referral to a surgeon if indicated.

All MSP referrals are individually triaged for acuity and if a wait for a specific physician/surgeon is expected to be greater than 5 months, we will communicate that to the referring physician and provide the option of an earlier assessment with the FAAST.

Our ongoing collaborative relationship with Partners in Care and Victoria and South Island Divisions of Family Practice will enabled us to provide accredited CME events at RebalanceMD. Stay tuned for more information about our upcoming events.
